Hey Hawk , It looks like you opened ( P-61 ) a candy store to kids with all the responses. I also have (P -61 ) to agree fileasfog and admin. With the eye for detail that ( P-61) Hobby Master puts out almost any plane I think would be a hit, and if its a first run ( P-61 ) probably a sell out and the idea of ground crew/pilots ( P-61 ) and airfield vehicles and equipment anything that can enhance my displays is always welcome. As for civilian planes / cars my brother ( P-61 )collects those and he is always ( P-61 ) looking for a new manufactuer.

I don't know why but after reading this post I can't seem to get P-61 out of my head, now if I could just figure out why.

Hobby Master as well as myself, want to thank everyone who left their comments, wishes and whatever else here in this thread or sent me emails. I have gathered all the posts and forwarded them Hobby Master.
Once again, thanks. I don't need any more input.

In the 1:72 scale there are many of the bombers already available, but the primary bomber of the Japanese used during WWII, is missing. I have the primary bombers of The US, Germany, and the UK, but there is no "BETTY". The only model of the "Betty" I have seen is the Model Power Postage Stamp. A C-47 would also be nice in this scale as the 1:48 scale offered by Armour is an excellent A/C it does take up a lot of space in a display case. I think the B-29 should also be included in this scale as well, the 1:144 produced by CORGI is just to small to be exciting for the true Collector. When we get to the Cold War A/C there should definitely be a B-58 Hustler in the 1:72.scale. If you produce a 1:144 scale there should definitely be a B-47, B-36, and the Russian "BEAR". These were the mainstay and most formidable of the A/C for their time!

Yes, 1/72 scale for the Betty bomber and how about a Val or a Zero floatplane for Japanese? For Germany, would love to see a FW-189 Uhl which was a widely used observation plane which was quite good on all fronts as well as the Henshel HS-126, also have to have either the Dornier Do-17Z or the Do-217. Nobody has done the famous ME-410 (or 210) either as well as the Henikel HE-177. Also would like a German floatplane like the Arado AR-196. These all would be a hit for sure! Have seen enough P-51's, P-47's and Spitfires for a lifetime, which I have way too many of now....

1/72nd bombers and post-war fighters F89,F84, the Grummans ,
What about a line of aircraft with standard camo patterns applied, that the collector could apply their own markings to.
Oh, and one of these

ditto that b-29 request -- love to see this in 1:72, knowing it would be pricey... and the betty, too --- Gbeck, Marushin made one in 1:48, though tracking one down is very hard (and will cost ya $300 probably)
