New HM stands please?

After looking at the Mirage, I think it looks so much better with the centreline fuel tank attached. That being said, Can HM redesign their stand for this and other planes with Ext Fuel Tanks so that the stand cradles the Centreline tank?

I love to see it in flying position with ext fuel tanks. I'll have to get a Witty F-16 stand for this one, but if future planes had better stands, that would be great

Re: New HM stands please?

The benchmark for quality stands are those from EI in 1/48 and Corgi in 1/72. I really like HobbyMaster products but find their stands no better than those of Dragon , which I find look cheap and tacky ...

yeah, but the Corgi stands don't look like they can cradle a centreline fuel tank. But the HM frame looks like it has potential.

Your concerns have been sent to Hobby Master along with my own.
