Poor old NZ peso isn't strong enough for the Felixstowe at present  :(

Hopefully the AEG will be more affordable

I don't want to discriminate, I'll buy the Felixboat and the AEG, I'm worried there will be three versions of the AEG....then I'll be in trouble.....

I'm really surprised that the Gotha or Junkers has not sold out yet.

I agree, also the other two "first" releases, the SE.5 and the Bristol...

Yep. I'm also surprised that the Alabtros isn't sold out yet either.

Much larger production run is my guess.  Look at all those after-market decal sheets they made for the D.V and D.Va.  Would be hard to sell all those decals if the kits are sold out!  Same logic applies to the Pfalz D.IIIa

Very true, Eric. I had not thought about all the aftermarket decal sheets for the Albatros and Pfalz D.IIIa.

Can't believe the Tripe is sold out!  Relatively inexpensive and not been around too long?

I would have loved to make another.

i am going to get a rock thrown at me but i just dont really want a felix, nor did i want a gotha. and aeg thats something else. might have to get one of those. even thought i have a couple in 1/48 already. i am really surprised the se5a/junkers/brisfit hasnt sold out. i would also bet the d.va was getting low in stock thats why they did the oaw boxing.

IMHO they had a second run of these two...

Exactly sir.  To be honest, WNW is one of the reasons I quite subscribing to Windsock some time back, it had become a very expensive sales brochure for WNW and little else.
