What do you want as kits in 2019?

[stuart bremner]

1:48 westland Scout / Wasp helicopter, ( two kits out of one / simular moulds ), 1:48 Gazelle helicopter, Well used aircraft and not really covered by any manufacture, Fujimi made kits but they were under scale and not detailed.

You guys could make such a good job of these and i'm sure they would sell.

Also new tool Buccaneer, come on guys, if you want Airfix to become rich quick. Make this as a new tool !!!!!! Would sell in the masses :0)

[TristarLover]

Newbie here, still waiting on my first ever kit to arrive, but regardless, I would still be very interested to see the following aircraft:

1. North American F-107 Ultra Sabre

2. BAC 221

3. Rockwell XFV-12

4. YF-102 Delta Dagger Prototype, (Not the production variant)

5. IA 58A Pucara

6. Yak-38 Forger

7. Ryan FR Fireball

[John Symmons]

The list above look very like the 2018 wish lists but I would second and third the call for a new 1/72 Ju 88, but please try the C series or the BMW engined night fighters, as the A series seem to be a dime-a-dozen with every Tom-Dick-&-Harry and their cousins doing it almost to the exclusion of other marks.

 

Basically any 1938 to 45 german aircraft would sell, after all how many Bf 109E does

1:48 westland Scout / Wasp helicopter, ( two kits out of one / simular moulds ),

I definitely think there would be a demand for the scout/wasp. Airfix has produced a scout with numerous re-boxings (about five) over the years, however I think only one manufacturer has ever produced the wasp, which was Fujimi. Also, this moulding is more of a 1/50 scale than 1/48, and is out of production. There are several conversion kits floating around though, to convert the scout to a wasp.

[MG Writer]

Definitely a 1:24 scale 1955 Le Mans MG 'EX182'. Thank you very much.

[Tomek22]

as usually I like to see some new figures sets, but not WWII stuff. Some modern, or cold war sets would be great.

Maybe some cold war vehicles.

[Bish1707821547]

I would deffinmetly like to see some 1/72nd ground crew figures, both WW2 and modern. There are a lot of ground equipment sets around but very few decent figure sets and the ones that are out tehre are hard to find.

[Marderkommandant]

My wishes on airfix for 2019:

 Ju 88 1/72

Ju 52 1/72

Me 262 1/48

Henschel HS 129 1/48 and 1/72

And special:  Focke-Achgelis Fa 223     https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focke-Achgelis_Fa_223

Thanks for reading and merry christmas and an perfect start in 2019!

 

[Philip Creasey]

're issue of 1/72 RAF Personnel & in 1/48 scale 

1/72 & 1/48 RAF PBY 5 A Catalina.New tooling.

1/48 Buccaneer

Next year = 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 deserves some attention surely? 

I suspect 2019 is long since cut & dried ? Should we not be asking for 2020 releases? 

 

 

 

 

[NWR-Gordon-4]

What are the chances of a new tooled road vehcile being announced in the Airfix QUICK BUILD range? I am talking about a recolour of an kit that already exists.

 

GNR-Gordon-4 (AF)

[Russ1707821018]

My list:

1/72 Hawker Tempest Mk.II/V/VI

1/72 Gloster Gauntlet

1/72 Blackburn Roc

1/72 Bristol/DAP Beaufort

1/72 Douglas SBD Dauntless

1/72 Grumman TBF/TBM Avenger/Tarpon

1/72 Avro Lincoln

1/72 Fokker D.VII

1/72 Airco D.H.4

1/48 Westland Whirlwind (WWII fighter)

1/48 HS Buccaneer

1/48 Fairey Gannet

[Warhawk1940]

The P-38 lightning is one of the kit i have missed and i would like to make and see a new P-38 1:48 being brought to the new model makers 

[RussellE]

My list:

1/72 Hawker Tempest Mk.II/V/VI

Can't deny it: I'd definitely stump up the cash for a new tool 1/72 Tempest!  😆

 

Now, on another note: since we're going to be seeing the F6F in 1/24 is it possible that the F4U Corsair will be next??? Hmmmm 

[Juldas]

1/72 S-76B and Bell-214ST no one is producing, selling

[Captain Triggers]

An early version of the be2c with skids and no engine cowling

[cjb7]

I would like Airfix to make a New Tool 1:48 scale Hampden and a New Tool Anson in the same scale as both have been neglected for far to long.

[Robert Fletcher1707819887]

I would like to see a DeHavilland Venom FB4 or FB5 in either 1/72 or 1/48 scale, as there has not been a kit readily available since the old frog series of 1950s jet fighters, there would be much scope in markings....... Venuzuela , Chilli, Iraq, Switzerland  RAF Suez campaigne and of course the other squadrons such as 28 serving in Hong Kong. Would not like to go as far as to say it would be a money spinner, but you never know.

[BobJD]

BSA C15

James Bond Aston Martin  DB5

SR N1 Hovercraft

Black Prince and any others of that series of historical figures

All ones I made as a kid and stupidly broke or lost over the years.  Any one of the above and I would be so so happy.

[Whisperhead]

All in 1/72 scale of course.

World War 2 (ish):

 

 

• Henschel Hs132
• Heinkel He177
• Junkers Ju388
• Gotha Go242
• Messerschmitt Me163
• Heinkel He280
• Arado Ar234
• Bachem Ba349
• Messerschmitt Me321
• Dornier Do335
• Focke Wulf Ta154
• Heinkel He100/112
• Hawker Tempest (radial)
• Avro Manchester
• Westland Whirlwind
• Northrop P-61 Black Widow
• Boeing B-29 Superfortress
• Convair B-36 Peacemaker
• Northrop YB-35 Flying Wing
• Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka
• Mitsubishi G4M Betty

 

Post-World War 2:

• Tupolev Tu-95
• Tupolev Tu-160
• TSR-2
• North American XB-70 Valkyrie
• Rockwell B1 Lancer
• Convair B-58 Hustler

Even a few of these would be incredible.

[Kenneth ONeill]

How about the YB-70 instead? There is an XB-70 kit, and there are significant differences in appearance between the 2 airframes.

Either would be great tbh.

I've seen the Italeri kit around a few times, sometimes extortionately priced, sometimes not, but have never really been tempted by it. An Airfix offering would be wonderful, but I don't think it's quite in keeping with their current range.

Well, when I bought my XB-70 it was priced lower than the present price of the Airfix Victor(s), and it's bigger (display area used) than a Victor or Vulcan (I have an unbuilt Valiant).

[Mark the Modeller]

I would like a lot of the kits being released in 1/72 to come out in 1/48. EG, New tooling Buccaneer, Mitchell, etc. Completely new Hampden, Whitley, Beaufort, etc etc the list could go on and on. And going up to four-engined, , Shackletons, (Revell has beaten you to a new MR3 in 1/72), Halifax, Stirling, and one I'm sure would sell really well, the PB4Y-2 Privateer. You are blowing the trumpet a lot for the 1/24 Hellcat, how about doing the same in 1/48 scale?

Mark the Modeller

[Little fix]

I am a new member and I would like to see a 1:32 or 1:24 scale Westland Lysander.  My partner got me a matchbox 1:72 Lysander from eBay but the person never said they had part built & broken a part or two.  After I carried out repairs and completed the kit, I  wanted a 1:32 scale version but they hard to come by now.  I think there is a market for the Lysander and a 1:32 or 1:24 would be top of the bill.

 

[Aussie Airfixer]

It's a bit late for 2019. I'll put my list in the 2020 forum.
