Re: What I would like to see next

Yeah because the six never before done P-51B/Cs were just too much for the market. And don't forget Princess Elizabeth, that makes seven. And we can't have anymore quality ( ie... not Corgi) B or C model Mustangs.
Give me a break! They just got warmed up on that model of the Mustang. Why should they quit now? Too many D models isn't an excuse. There are some really good B/C liveries that still haven't seen the light of day to be calling it a boring subject.
 

See ya all in about 15 months!!

Re: What I would like to see next

If Gemini is paying attention to what's happening in the military diecast field it might do well to consider a FW-190D as a fairly sure fire WW II seller---with only Dragon's slightly flawed entry ( no retracted tail wheel ) as competition in 1:72nd scale. I doubt that Hobby Master has its eyes set on this one. A companion choice might be a riskier option like a Japanese Oscar or Tony, a Soviet Yak-3 or 9 or an Italian MC-202, or a "safer" P-36. In the twin engine field, it's also a quessing game as to what birds may be done by whom and needless duplication should be avoided. So Gemini must decide whether it wishes to gamble in this tricky WW II arena or shift to jet fighters where there is lots of activity, although not so much in the early Cold War Era. Here, a Mig-15 or 17 would be a good bet, along with the F-80, F-84 and F-106. As for the Vietnam War, you've got the F-111, that long wished for F-105 and really innovative possibilities like a Cessna A-37 Dragonfly. Sure, there are relatively few livery options for many of the jets but why not try a higher priced limited edition---say of the F-105 and emulate Hobby Master's move with the Kate---in effect, testing the marketplace?
