As I said before, it's going to be a Canuck! Why? Because I'm trying to scratch-build one.

Pietro, your scratch builds are so nice you don't need Wingnuts!  Just keep doing what you are doing. :)

They go like this just before a big release, they are probably busy boxing up all the new kits in preparation for a fanfare release.

Well, it's my birthday on 12 August. That must be what they're waiting for. How kind!

Best wishes

Here's a spy photo from a very reliable source of what the WNW employees are doing now:

Thank you, George. That's very gratifying coming from a Master such as you.

Well, were all expecting a Camel (or two), no surprise but what's the "shocker", if any, going to be?? They are far from done, IMHO! :o 8)

Criswell predicts (have you seen Ed Wood?) it will be German, have three wings, and one of the color options will have some red paint... good for a "duelists" box set.

If they match up the blanks on the right handside of their "kit sets" with the releases on the left hand side, I reckon there are another ten releases to go.

If you allow for a Fokker Triplane,Sopwith Camel ,Late Brisfit, and maybe a "duellist", then there may be another six kits yet to be revealed?

Purely speculation on my part of course... ;) ::)

Dave,
 Unless they are the six floating around in my head, I'll be wanting more than six; don't forget the late Ninack as well. Some brilliant paint schemes. An F.1 Camel, a 2F.1 Camel, and with a sprue for the Le Prieur rockets would suit me just fine.

They have added a new PDF catalogue
Moreover the resin figures now have their section and are "in development"
You have no trace of the Oop kits.

Something is boiling...

All the OOP kits are still listed on the Wingnuts site, and the 'in development' sign has been displayed on the resin figures page for neary 5 years now, so it appears nothing has changed. But, something is brewing over at Wingnuts, we can expect a few new releases soon, I think we will be in for a surprise, or two  ;) ;) :D

i think we have a hansa w.12 "mid" or "late" coming soon since they only gave us an "early" last year.

The guys I feel for are the guys who build the display models for their website.

They must be on some sort of deadline presumably and they are not exactly the sort of things you can rush? :)

Yes we are given deadlines, mine have varied from 4 weeks to 3 months. Sometimes I do feel I have rushed it and haven't done the the model justice.

Thank you for your response, Brett. I think this is the first time someone on the inside of WNW has responded directly on this speculation thread. (I'm sure I'll be corrected if I am wrong about that  ::))

By the way, very nice HB W.12!
