Time for the annual Wingnuts speculation

[SteveDK]

I’d love to see some 1/32 scale Austro Hungarian aircraft from WNW, such as the OEFFAG Albatros D.III types, the Hansa Brandenburg C.I, the MAG Fokker D.VII and Phoenix D.II. I’d also love it if they made a kit of the Hansa Brandenburg W.12 seaplane fighter. I’m glad I at least ordered the W.29 before they sold out!

Ciao, Steve K.

Yeh, Steve, your words are mine!
And not to forget the Aviatik Berg D.I! Neither should we overlook the two-seaters like the Phoenix C-.I or UFAG C.I!
And talking about the Austro Hungarian Airforce, we shall not give up hope seeing some of the wonderful planes of their italian and russian adversaries too!
And if they came in versions and with decals of planes used by Airforces of the belligarent old and new nations in the multitude of wars in the years after the Great War would be fine for me too.

BUT: All those will bring most delight to me, AFTER  WNW have given to us a Roland C.II Walfisch!

Thank you for listening,

Richard

Hello Richard

It would be great to see such diversity (ok, well maybe a Walfisch first!),  but I can't help but thinking that to see much appear from the Eastern Front would need a big resurgence of activity from Eastern European manufacturers, who recognise the enormous catalyst provided by WnW and the opportunities presented by the forthcoming centenary commemorations.

Best wishes

Breguet 14, Curtis Jenny.  I agree, the Austro Hungarian/Italian side needs to be better represented.  Roden could take a cue from WNW and get back into production with some diverse product rather than rebox with different markings. 

Good topic for discussion, but will we ever see these?  Hope springs eternal.

With TVAL getting a Hanriot HD.1, do you think Wingnut will release one?

[Des]

I am pretty sure that an Avro 504 will be close to the top of the Wingnut list of kits to release this year, I hope so. TVAL has been in possession of an original restored example for some time now and anything TVAL owns seems to be kitted by Wingnuts.

Hmm yes a list of TVAL aircraft not yet kitted by WNW would be interesting...

Albatros D.II
RAF B.E.2
Avro 504

... What else???

[rhallinger]

Sounds like a fine starting point to me, Bo!

Sure hope so - one of my top wants is a 1/32 kit of the HD.1....

A DH.5 !'d Love to have that in 1/32 scale too

I think WNW are more likely to produce a kit of an aeroplane that TVAL built themselves as opposed to an aeroplane that TVAL acquired already built. For me that would count out the DH5, Hanriot and Albatros DII. But hey, who knows?

What about the cute little Nieuport XI bebe, I don't know if TVAL own it but it is a regular visitor at the airshows.

Yes please! I'd love to be able to say "Put me down for a couple of the little Nieuports". Yum!

100% in my opinion.
I would hazard a guess TVAL will reverse engineer the original and knock up a couple of Repos. The kit will follow soon after
