What's Next For GMP???

Anyone have intel on what GMP may be considering for the future? Corsair? P-38? P-47? I need to plan accordingly - like adding on to my house!

Re: What's Next???

I recall another member on MH I saying it was definitely not a Corsair , which is what the rumor was it was going to be... I seriously doubt it's a P-38, though that would be very cool for sure (though probably quite expensive!).

A jug would be great, and is a logical choice. I wouldn't be suprised to see a Spit, which would kinda be a dull choice. Though maybe they'll throw a curve and go with an Axis bird, such as a 109 or 190 (a Dora would rock!)--or a 262

I'd love to the Big Hog Corsair done by GMP more than anything else though.

Re: What's Next???

I just got off the phone with GMP and....
GMP's "Big Beautiful Doll" has been delayed until the end of November, factory issues. They are currently trying to narrow it down from approximately five different liveries for both the next P-51 and P-40. I got the impression that the next P-40 was going to be a Kittyhawk I’ve no clue on the Mustang. As to the next casting, that information was "Top Secret".

Re: What's Next???

I'd love a Jug but anything Axis would be even better. Then again, I have been leaving the new stuff in boxes for months so I couldn't display it when I got it anyway. I am far too lazy to actually rotate models as dusting is enough of an inconvenience. I know cases are great and wonderful but my walls in the only room I can call my own are lined with bookshelves full of books so I am a bit limited. One must have their priorities.

Hopefully the great Wizard will reveal all soon.
