Awhile ago 21st had on their website that the 1/32nd F4U was going to be coming out. Anyone heard anything yet? I have the Bunker Hill 1/18th F4U and this would be a cool addition to add to the fleet so to speak.

It's suppose to come out in a 2 pack with a Zero. I hope that they show up in my AO.

Is that the only way it's being released? Not as a single?

E8, I'm sure that 21st will release it as a single but from what I've read here, someone posted that it was seen on the back on another twin pack with a Zero. Single or set, I'll buy one. I've yet to see any Zeros here. This hobby just keeps getting better and better.

That new Corsair scheme looks unreal. The 32x planes are really getting "next level"

hope the trend carries over to the Tiger(p) coming out.

I am sure we will see the Corsair in single packs as well a dogfight pack as well!
A Zero & Corsair is too sweet to pass up, however I believe that the first releases will be single planes!
I am putting up another stuka 1:32 scheme in the next day or so... Soon as 21st sends it to me!

What scheme will we get for the Zero and Corsair? Will they be the same as pictured on the back of the bubbletop/FW190 box?
question for tko

tko, question for you, I know the picture on the website is a prepro, but will the final version include a rear antenna mast, and are the rockets removable? Thanks!

I want to know why the landing gear doors on the front have that weird shape. I mean, they got it right on the 1/18 version, but these look off. I see a hole for a pitot tube, but the antennas on top seem to be missing once again. The wing folding mechanisms look much stronger though...

I am not sure what the scheme would be for a dogfight release.
I think all the ones that AREA-21 will be showing in the next few weeks are all single packed planes.
I believe that the photos of Big Hog are production samples. So my guess that what you see here is what you will get.
I am pretty certain that the rockets come off but I will confirm to be sure.
The wing folds look nice and beefy! that is a good thing!

No antenna mast huh, well I guess I could make one of my own...hopefully they'll include one for future releases.

There is no pitot tube either which leads me to believe that 21st just didn't put them on for these photos (Antennas, pitots and guns typically come seperate)..

The Corsair is something I wont pass up on thats for sure no matter what scheme its in. Could we possibly see a Hellcat on the way? I would hope so. Also cant wait to get my hands on the P-51B.

That makes sense Hworth, hope that is the case, 'cause I can't wait to get my hands on this one!

the S3 Corsair is posted. Interesting choice. It doesn't look like they retooled the wings to reflect the shorter, clipped version the british used. I guess it wouldn't be too hard a mod to do yourself though..

If 21st aint going to re-tool their excellent 1/18th Corsair I doubt if they will re-tool their 1/32nd series. It looks as though I will be buying alot of the 1/32nd Corsairs and get some Zero's now too! Imagin the dog fight scene I will be setting up.
