Hoping Hobby Master does the F-101 first.

Particularly this one.

anything is possible with HM.
take the P-26 everyone thought it would bomb but they did very well.
so maybe these and others will soon be up and flying

Actually AG, the Avro Arrow was done by the Canadian Heritage Series. Not trying to nitpick,but no mention of HM.At least on the credits.A totally new diecast company.At least in theory.

It was commisssioned by the Canadian Warplane and Heritage museum.
A great idea.How about if a museum commissions a model to be made of one of their aircraft.

Groundbreaking.Even though it seems to be acknowledged that it was made by Hobby Master[or at least their factory].

It still has Canadian Heritage Series on the box.No mention of HM.And previously they had worked with HM on the RCAF Harvard.And that model had links to both CWHM,and HM.On the label.

I picked up the Arrow on pre-order from the museum,and I love it.Great detail,and big.

An F-102 or F-106 in 1:72 would certainly spice the hobby up a bit. There are Vietnam War F-102 liveries that I would be interested in.

An F-101 would be seriously righteous, too.
