Wow, How about a P-38 or Typhoon Special Comm.

Clostermann Typhoon

Putt Putt P-38

YES A CLOSTERMANN TYPHOON! That would be great!

Or anything from the spanish civil war would be also great.

I'd be all for a Putt Putt Maru (MacDonald), or a Pudgy (McGuire) if it came to that. My heart yearns for a Condor Legion/Spanish Bf109, but Martin indicated that this is not terribly likely (unless Corgi does a Spanish 109 as well), which is too bad, given how quickly his Molders FW190 sold out.

I know that Gemini does exclusives in the airliner range, so I'd be inclined to guess that they might be willing to talk to Martin about an exclusive P-51B (Gentile!).

In the Corgi camp, I can certainly see Martin doing a P-38 companion to any of the Corgi releases, and perhaps a companion to a tooling we haven't even seen yet. Thomas Lynch flew with Bong for a while in December 1942 (Lynch flying lead), so perhaps his P-38 is in the cards? (Did Lynch even fly the J?)

A Graf Fw 190, it's very colourful, and anyfing german sells!

I think we are talking about what the second from now commission is. I think Martin alluded pretty strongly that he is interested in a trio of Gentile planes and there have been heavy hints that Corgi is doing a P-51B in the Jan-June 2007 catalogue, and I am thinking that there might be a Warbirds P-51B with Gentile's markings, that will be doubled into a AA line that Martin will offer in tandem to the cheaper model. (sounds good even if it is all quess work and speculation...)

So for the one following that... I still say a white Russian Hurricane is in order.

I would think that Corgi would reserve all the popular Typhoons and P-38 for themselves to ensure the sales numbers and ROI. If that is the case, we are at the mercy of Corgi's production schedule.

My money is also on a Gentile P-51B.

How about a Graf ME-109

Now that would be really cool,...if only Corgi could ever figure out how to do a Connie...

[fileasfog]

Is Clostermann considered a famous typhoon pilot?
I dont know gentile.
I still find a white russian hurricane is a good idea.

[STARMAN 352ND]

I think it be cool if Martin put out a Tommy McGuire Pudgy V P-38J lightning.
After all he is the 2nd highest Ace in the USAAF.
