New Planes

I was on the FOV site and saw some new planes (at least new to me).

Has anyone seen the P-40, Zero, or 262 shown on the site?

The P-40 scheme looks like the Pearl Harbor paint scheme but the mold looks like a later model. (the pix are not very clear)?.

Re: New Planes

I have bought a white hurricane, on the back it showed the new planes.
I am quite excited by this.

Re: New Planes

Yeah, that paint scheme DOES look like a Pearl Harbor P-40. However, from the six .50s in the wings, you can tell that it's not a P-40B (the model that was in the Hawaiian Islands during the attack). However, it sure looks sharp! As much as I like shark mouths on P-40s, I wouldn't mind something different in 1/72...

It will be interesting to see what the sticker on the package says regarding where this fighter was stationed...

It is definitely Welch's paint and number. See the Carousel version of this aircraft and compare. Guess it was too much to hope for a proper "B".

It looks like there may be a missile rack hiding under that 262 wing?

Re: New Planes

I never find these at Target. Where do you guys get them?
 

Don't forget the targets are my airfields, Leigh-Mallory, and you're not getting fifty, you're not even getting ten.

I heard Walmart will start carrying FOVs? Does anyone know if the 'White' Hurricane available in Sears Wish book catalog this year?
