I find the A-10 Weapon Packs most interesting, sure be great to pimp up my A-10s
and might pick up the F-5 if final product pics looks good
There is also pre-pro pics of upcoming Sd. Kfz.234/4 Pakwagen and M7 Priest

The Sundowners F-5 tops my list, and the Phantom & F-111 look tempting too. BTW, where did you download the image....?? That's great news on the weapons sets for the A-10 and I'm really happy to see HM adding some accessories to their product line.

Images are taken from
http://www.hobbymastercollector.com
Most comprehensive and up to date site for Hobby Master and Skymax diecasts
At the top of their front page, click on the News with the date stamp and you'll see all the latest news, pics, planned releases, etc
As for pics,
I just figured out that you can open a "Post to reply" or "Start new topic" here,
click on the "Img" tab below the Subject line and you'll get something like this:
[ img ][ img ]
Then just insert the URL reference link of the pic (right click on target pic, then click on properties, copy+paste URL address) you wanna post here between the x2 [ img ]
Example: [ img ]

Though the 60th anniversary RAAF scheme looks possibly awesome, I'm already stopping at one F-111 (1st release) in my hangar.
But... said the same thing about stopping at one 1/18 plane but now have a dozen!

The F-111 RAAF in grey for me. A good looking scheme.
Very glad that HM has done the F-5. Not sure I like it with the Sundowners scheme though.

Flying Mule has put up some real nice shots of the soon to be released HM EF-111A Raven. To stay within budget this scheme is probably the only one I will buy, famous last words...

OMG! OMG! OMG! just unpacked my USAF f-11a 'vaark. what a piece of art! gorgeous! they really thought through the engineering this time around. i have it displayed wings forward, gear down, and all missles/bombs on the hardpoints. with this specimen, you have the ability to diplay it on the stick with the gear down. i thought the f-102 was gonna be my fave, but you can't display the dagger with the weapons load at the underbelly in the deployed position and on the stick. CG is more aft than normal, but it still works. but i'm really diggin' the f-111 and the thud. and my gaggle of A-1s. and the Hun, and look how small the f-104 is compared to the f-111 and the 102 and 105....sorry. i'll get pics up this weekend. wife is asking me not to order anymore models, uhhhhhhh, yeah. about that.......
