Re: Custom HM model

One special edition I would welcome from HM would be the single TBF survivor out of six Avengers from VT-8 that went out to attack the Japanese fleet at the Battle Of Midway. It carried the code 8-T-3 and sported early war insignias--sans the red dots or red/white rudder stripes. All that would be required to create this model would be a change to the cowl to show the single MG positioned there while filling in the wing gun ports on the current model. No doubt there are other minor differences, but I could live with the gun reconfigurations. Of course, there would be no rockets on the Midway TBF.
