saw this on an upcoming model list.

anyone know how much of the plane will be visible?  For $70 or so I
hope  that she is pretty close to naked.

Not seen anything about it, but it would have to match the Tamiya clear
edition I would have thought as far as letting it hang out goes. Hopefully
it wont have the Tamiya's ejector pin marks on the inside of the fuselage
halves. Anyway, what are they doing messing about with that? shouldn't they
be concentrating on getting that 1/32 EE Lightning onto the shelves?

There are pictures of it on Trumpeters website.  It is 1/32 scale so
it's not "borrowed" from Tamiya.  It certainly looks interesting,
especially in that large scale.

I'll settle for having the 1/72 versions released tomorrow.

Oh...  and while Trumpeter is in the mood for Brit jets, how about a
Scimitar, Swift, Javelin and Buccaneer?

I wear the cheese. It does not wear me.

A visible Buccaneer would be interesting for the bomb bay alone.

Well, there's sort of a visible one on Guam at the moment:

Reuters doesn't like my ancient Netscape so they won't let me look.
Phooey.

A Venom FB1 or 4 would be nice too.  It need only be visible on the model
shop shelf. Perhaps Xtrakit will make one to go with their Vampire FB5.

The initial release had the engine housings in clear, so I suspect they will
just add a clear fuselage sprue.

Their new P-51B kit comes with both fuselage halves in clear and colored
plastic.

You can get a pretty fair idea from this:
