1/48 P-51B Bald Eagle
Don't know if anyone has posted or not but picked up a 1/48 P-51B Bald Eagle at TRU yesterday. Didn't know this one was coming out.

Can anyone think of a compelling reason 21C would copy repaints from 1/32 to 1/48? To me that seems to be a foolish move. The Mustang must have more cool paint variants than any other AC and they do a copy?
All I can think is that they could scale down the paint masks.

Yeah, not sure why they picked this one to do. I would have preferred Ding Hoa or something like that.olifant wrote:![]()

These were here and gone last Spring (two P-51s, silver and green and two Me-109s the K-4 and a G-10). I have never seen the 1/48 P-40. It has never shown up around here (Eastern NC). What kind of nutty distribution system do they have? Ten months between them showing up in different parts of the country....

We haven't had a 1/48 at our WMs in >12 months, I thought 21stC had stopped making them.

Rowsdower, I agree. They're okay, but they need to be stocking the P-51Ds and the Fw-190Fs!
But hey at least it's new stuff, so we know they're semi-current... 
We're going to be stuck with Black 3 109Es and Berlin Expresses for months before we get the 190s and P-51s...
Of course I got those two planes, but still.
