Model Forum / General / Models / February 2008Where's my modern military equipment in 1/72-6 scale?
Okay, I'm ranting again... Just watching a show on History international about the cold war. I want to know, just where in the heck is my 1/72 HMMT with Pershing II and launcher!?!? And gimme a HAWK missile launcher and while you're at it I'd like a GLCM too! If we can FINALLY buy a decent Merkava, S-300, HMMWV of various designs, and an Abrams with mine plow, WHY CAN'T we do the NEAT STUFF! What about a damned NIKE! What about an Atomic Annie! C'mon Jack, gimme the sutff that was new back in the '60's; like an M-47 or Walker Bulldog! Sheesh, I can buy a Bradley with stinger missiles but I can't get a decent freaking US SAM of any sort in God's own scale. And while I'm at, would someone PUH-LEASE make a decent new tool kit of the F-102 and F-106... Put that damned Hasegawa kit out of our misery fer chrissake! Rant mode off. You may now return to your previously scheduled model byuilding. -ahill > Okay, I'm ranting again... > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > > You may now return to your previously scheduled model byuilding.

What's wrong with the Hasegawa F-102 and the F-106? I'm curious as I have both kits under construction? Cheers from Peter I know your pain - from an aircraft-modelling perspective, I've been begging for new, accurate 1/72 kits of the Yak-1b, Lavochkin La-5 series, and Polikarpov 1-153 for YEARS - maybe a La-9, too... I've lost count, literally, of the number of kits I've butchered, patched, bashed, and otherwise sacrificed to try to achieve models of these aircraft, and still my prayers go unanswered. Truly, I must have offended the Model Gods deeply that they continue to scorn my supplications and sacrifices!

You could still get 'em. I mean, this year were getting two Sea Vixens and a plethora of Lightnings from three different companies, so anything is possible.  SignatureEnzo I wear the cheese. It does not wear me. |
