Am I the only one thinking this.... now that they are promising a Mitchell in 1/18, can a 1/32 be far behind?
Be still my heart....

I hear that larger 2 engined planes (and even 4 engines) are in the works for 1/32 scale, but I can't say which ones or when....

It would have been nice to hear something at Toy Fair...hopefully they're just holding back like they did with the B-25 announcement...

I think 21st prefers Comicon instead of the Toyfair for announcements, so you can probably expect something then..

Were they even there last year? It was the only time I've ever been and never saw them around...

yea but how much for a 1:18 B25

This will be the USS Flagg of 21st....a really cool toy but priced out the reach of most buyers i bet or just too big for most people.

Biggest Joe toy I had was the General w/locust heli. and it was huge.

A 1/32 scale B-25 is really a possiblity in my opinion. I will cry foul if it happens though because I know exactly where they would have gotten the idea from, LOL

But honestly, I expect we see one. I know from building it, the B-25 in 1/32ish scale is roughly the size of the 1/18 ME-109 so that is certainly a possibilty.

It'd be interesting to see what other planes they would try. The good thing about 1/32 is the price point, which I love. You really can't go wrong with these planes for the price. I buy mostly 21st and fill in missing with models from the other companies. I am actually quite surprised 21st doesn't try a P-38. I really thought we'd see that in 1/32 since they have the 1/18 mold for it already.

That's the thing that concerns me with 1/32, if we get too big, we lose the great price point. Might be a turn off from people who are buying them for that reason, but we will see. I for one would love to see a 1/32 B-17 or something of that nature.

I would consider a B-25 in 1/32, but I'm gonna pass on the XD version, that thing is going to be a MONSTER, and for me it's just not practical to display anything that large. Anyway, I'm happy for the guys that are excited about getting the XD version.

That's what I dont' get...they can put out a 1/32 scale bomber and use the same footprint and box size they use for the 1/18 planes, and get out some really great twin engined planes that are neglected. I would still buy a 1/32 bomber that is the same price as a 1/18 plane; storage space is my only problem, and I would gladly make room for a 1/32 bomber...

I would luv to see a B-25 and He-111 in 1/32. I wonder if the B-26 is not too far off in either 32 or 18 scale?? Especially since the B-26 and B-25 are very close in size.

A 32x Bomber would be sweet

I saw a 1/32 Do 17Z model kit at the Hobbyshop last time I went, well a good number of 1/32 kits, but the 17Z just stood out as something different.
