What are the chances of seeing a 1:48 or 1:32 F4U Corsair from HM ?

Of all the warbirds i have in 1:32 this F4U Corsair has been missing in a die-cast...
What are the chances of Hobby Master making this Corsair in 1:32 ?
I would really love to see it done as a VMF-214 Blacksheep or VF-17 Jolly Roger..
I know there are a few of you out there that would like to see this one as well..
even a 1:48 one would be great because no one makes a really nice looking F4U Corsair to date.

HERE ARE SOME FINE LOOKING CORSAIRS BUILT BY PLASTIC MODEL BUILDERS

**JUST A NOTE FOR THE BOYINGTON CORSAIR**
* BuNo 18086, an F4U-1A, in November 1943, or he at least sat in it for the PR photos
* BuNo 17740, an F4U-1A, in December 1943, used in "baseball" photo session
* BuNo 17883, an F4U-1A, in December 1943, also flown by Bob McClurg
* BuNo 17915, an F4U-1A, in January 3, 1944, Boyington's last mission..He was shot down in this Corsair

George Preddy was......Just the greatest fighter pilot who ever squinted through a gunsight.
