Regardless of the next subject, WNW keeping things close to home , just keeps us all in suspense and eager anticipation  that the " next one" will be that... favorite or longer over due request of ours.   Kind of a brilliant strategy !

The Nuremburg Toy Expo runs from Jan 31st till Feb 4th 2018, so we don't have long to wait to see what the surprise new kit will be from Wingnuts (the Be.2)

Yeh, that was WnW‘s annual April 1st release... but as MOST of the WnW fans WANT WnW make a Fokker Dreidecker, only few dared a thorough look at the „ad“.

I know some think the new model will be another Sopwith to close out the range and it’s been suggested that it would be the 1 1/2 strutter. But what about the Sopwith Baby/Tabloid.... now that would be very welcome. Way more than some overhyped three winged German copy of a Sopwith product ;) tongue firmly in cheek on that last comment....

nah, give me something more exotic....
how about a Lloyd C.V ? not too much rigging and lot of wood!

I see that there ia a new 1/48 from Special Hobby, but a big scale one would be nice too

i notice on these threads people usually predict more what they'd want than what is likely a good bet.

i don't know what a good bet would be. tea leaves suggest WNW are more interested in 'popular' subjects (Camel, Albatrio, D.VII repop all more or less at once)...

however, in spite of the number of modelers dreaming of a WNW F.1/Dr.1, i'd take a bet this is not going to be that. that said, if they eventually do one i won't be shocked and would never bet never...
