After thinking about it anything new would be nice. You know something that hasnt been created. Such as some sea transportation

Hate to pull rank.... he says jokingly... but what we really need is a......

in 1/18th folding wing tips and all! Picture that thing sitting in a pond lake, near the shore, what a picture! Heck I'd do a couple of each paint job!

You're misinterpeting - I should have put in a comma. Any P-51B would be great, BUT Gentile's would be a major seller as compared to other lesser-known aces.

A PBY would be cool.

Living on Long Island and passing Gabreski Airport all the time, I would love to add a P-47 with his paintscheme. I have a minor focus of LI built and historically important aircraft and this would fit perfectly.

I think they should release everything they announced first, mainly the B-25, F-4, and the MiG-21, before announcing any other "releases."

You must be a fool if you think they are still coming out with those planes...

Probably, but you can't blame a guy from hoping.

I'd love to see the Kubelwagen wagon again, in the original color scheme and a DAK repaint. I would like to have a couple more Panzer IV's Mix em' up a bit give us 4 variations and leave out the Radio Control.

As far as new stuff goes, A BMW Motorcycle w/ side Car amd MG-34 would be a great addition. Be sure to give us one in DAK. A Panzerspähwagen would be pretty sweet. Again give us one in DAK.

Re-paints sure - at least we'd have something "new".

As far as the re-releases go, they just lower the values for those that originally bought them.

Hi all !!after reading the posts on what needs to be released will we see the F-18 and the F-16 in different color schemes from the different countries that fly them like they did with the 104s and I have put to bed with any chance of having the F-4,B-25 and Mig 21 this year, wish it would have never been brought up as something to look forward to for 2008 and as a X Cannon Cocker will we ever see the 155 and the 198 towed in 1:18 scale?
1:18th or nothing

Not knowing anything about ground items, what is the actual size of the market for aviation models vs. stuff stuck on terra firma?

Granted, this is a biased view, but air shows are among the biggest fan draws - more people see them than even attend NASCAR events.

Frankly, getting armor into the mainstream seems like a daunting task, relegated to the truly determined collector.

Where do the manufacturers see the opportunities?

Airplanes, tanks and artillery that are not priced in the $100 range
