Hachette Announces A TBF and SBD

Post by Epap » Fri Oct 09, 2015 5:26 am

I realize that this cannot compare to the enthusiasm caused by HM's decision to offer a 1:72nd scale Mig-23---first one due next April----however, Hachette has just posted pictures of a 1:100th scale TBF in what looks like Coral Sea markings, and a 1:87th scale SBD, plus a ME-262A. For those who might be interested, check out the pictures in the following link:

The link is working for me, D. You have to click on the pictures in the lower right to get a somewhat larger view.

By "Coral Sea" I meant the TBF has red dots and tail stripes. I thought that Midway was the first time the TBF was used, as well. Maybe, Hachette is doing a "pre-Midway" scheme??
