Yep - personally looks like I will be saving some $$ this year as those two do not interest me but that is still cool - amazed as always for something like the BII to arrive in 1/32 quality injected plastic kit form and excited for what WNW will bring in the future....

Those wood decals on the B.II might be enough to get me to bite.....also it says B.II (early)  does this mean a late?

Just ordered the Albatros B.II!  If I can't have a Quirk, I'll have the German equivalent!  Merry Christmas to me!
Cheers,
Bud

That's a rather nice surprise. Early aircraft have a beuty of their own. I guess this comes from their fragility.

I am happy.

For me, and I'd suspect a bunch of us, and, quite possibly for Peter Jackson, this is simply fun. So many people in this money driven world have forgotten the definition of that word.  Building models and having fun wondering what will come next from Wingnuts is something we love and are doing for the love of and fun of it. Not everything in the world has to revolve around a damn
business plan. Cripes, get your heads out of the damn account books and Screw the business aspects of it. It's a HOBBY.

Yes, perfectly said, Michael! If Wingnuts did things the "right" way they'd be just like every other predictable corporate business out there and we wouldn't be trying so hard to guess what they are up to. I think it's refreshing to find a company that challenges us and always keeps us guessing. What better way to keep them in our thoughts?

WnW Albatros B.II ?? Not on my WnW website. Not on the home page, not in news and not in kitsets. I only see a DH9a post war as Christmas release. I must be doing something wrong.

Seeing the funny way they released Alb B.II (with "click on banner popping in DH.9a" trick) and the boxart of it I just wonder if there is a special Christmas surprise still ahead of us (like last year) - a BE.2???

Thanks PrzemoL, yes there it is. Nice. There have been two B.II's flying with orange cockardes. So I must order one.

And I have just found, that Camel F.1 has got its catalogue number 32070, which rises the number of planned WNW kits to 70 pieces at least! There is future for us WNW-nutters  :)
