I do like the Junkers.(Pic above) and it's nice to see not all the normal fighters(Ie: Neuports, Sopwiths and Dr.Is) in the line.

These look really sweet. I'm glad to see some expansion into the 1:32 arena.
I didn't know it was Peter Jackson that owned the company. No wonder they are so nice.

I wonder if they are using stereo lithography by now?

(from Hyperscale) About the company

Wingnut Wings is associated with Peter Jackson, film director of ‘Lord of the Rings’ fame, who has a passion for WWI aviation. He has one of the finest personal collections of WWI aviation uniforms, memorabilia and reproduction aircraft anywhere in the world, held in trust by the 1914-18 Aviation Heritage Trust and displayed at Omaka in Blenheim (NZ). The Vintage Aviator Ltd, another Jackson subsidiary company, is producing replica WWI aircraft to exacting historical accuracy using original factory drawings, mostly with original WWI aero engines.

Wingnut Wings has combined these resources with 3D artists from the Weta Digital side of Jackson’s business, prominent WWI aviation artists from around the world and talented Kiwi modellers, to bring to market an exciting collection of injection moulded 1/32 WWI aircraft and painted metal figures.

I'm still waiting for Admiral's 1/18 World War I planes.
I'd be interested in Wingnut--except they're kits and I have very low assembly skills.
