I would like to see someone put out the Ki 44 Tojo and would also like to see one of the Japanese floatplanes like the Jake.

I see you already have a Ki-61 Tony. Did you mean Ki-100, a Ki-61 airframe with radial engine? One of those would be sweet.

You still may be able to find an IXO Mitsubishi J2M3 Raiden to add to the collection, and of course HM is bringing out a Kate to fly with your Grace.

I would be in for a Ki 100, like the looks of the radial on the Tony airframe. I remember making the Otaki 1/48th scale Ki 100 when I was a kid, neat looking model.

Actually I would like to see Ki-100 in 1/72. But think I ment was a Nick and some how I switched the names by mistake. Because the names Tony and Nick sound so much alike, ahaha, Oops

The Kawasaki Ki-45 would be an interesting model. Japanese heavy fighter with the same wartime mission progression as the Bf-110. Japan stopped using them as a long-range bomber escort after a couple run ins with P-40s, just like the Bf-110 abandoned that role after a few encounters with Hurricanes and Spitfires. Next up they served as heavy bomber interceptors, until the US long range escort fighters ended that gig. Then on to night fighter, again just like the 110.

Who can we convince to make it?

I can see IXO comming out with it in the future, but I would like Corgi or Hobby Master to step up and finally make them.
