What?!  The E.I and the E.IV?!  Boy, I didn't see that coming!

Ordered an E.I tonight, should be here later this week.

Wingnuts have now given us the option of;

Fokker E.I (Early)
Fokker E.II/E.III (Early)
Fokker E.III (Late)
Fokker E.IV

An E.I? Wow!

Anything which throws the spotlight on the earlier years of the war is fine by me.

Best wishes

Since we love idle speculation and reading inscrutable tea leaves, let me try this one:

The box art for the E.IV shows a BE.2 going down---the first BE.2 shown in cover art as I recall.  Perhaps the BE.2 will be the 2013 surprise!  It would fit right in with the Eindeckers.  ;D  I also believe TVAL has built one, and there are those here who have noted that TVAL types tend to wind up in kit form.  Have the stars and planets aligned for a BE.2?!

Just a pipe dream.  We'll see.  I'll be happy with whatever they send our way. :)

Cheers,

Bob

This ,of course my opinion/guess.
Known pending releases that will come out for Christmas:
1. AEG
2. Fokker E IV  8)
3. Salmson

As for the Surprise releases:
1.SOPWITH CAMEL ( yes they announced they were working on it but we have seen no Mock ups.)
2. Sopwith Dolphin or Strutter
3. Fokker EV ( The only Fokker not done by a Mainstream ( AVIS not withstanding) Company.

RAGIII

One of my sure bets:  ;D

A Sopwith Tabloid, and Baby would fit with the "mold utilization" formula, and I'd be in for a baby  for sure.

I am hoping on a Halb Cl2 surprise for Christmas myself.

The Fokker Es dont do much for me but happy for those who have been awaiting those releases!

Hello All

I think we can draw some optimism from the fact that WnW  now have four of the early Eindekkers on their books. I had assumed that sales potential meant it likely that we'd just see one. I recognise the overlap between the four may reduce some production costs but I'm now much more confident that we'll see some more of the rarer aircraft appearing which might have lower general market appeal. Hope so!

Best wishes
Nigel

Breguet 14 A/B for the Surprise Xmas release please!

Color schemes, conversions and post war use are endless! A great companion to the Salmson in AEF & French livery also ...........

Well, I just scored some Datafiles over the week-end, so NOW, I'd like to see a Short sea plane to go with my Baby, and a Voisin or Farman would be really cool 1st gen WWI planes. The Breguet sounds interesting.
