Didnt I read somewhere that Hobbymaster was coming out with 1/48 scale pilots for the Buffaloes ?

Where did you read this? I'd like to know too.

I can not find a thread on this it may have been on one of the other forums.

Starting with HA7005 due to be released at the end of October (this is the daate they leave China) the Buffalo will come with a pilot.

Is there any chance of HM coming out with pilot figures sold separately? It would be nice to get pilot figs for the three Buffalos I already have.

When is HM going to have pilot figures on ALL the planes??? and ground crews???
I like all of them to have at least one, more the better.

This has been suggested to them but so far it isn't in the plans, but hopefully given time. Plant the seed and watch it grow.

Thank you for the update.

I thought I read something earlier in the year that HM was going to place aircrew in their 1/72 line up. Is this so or is it going to be like the 1/48 were it is only the odd scheme that is going to get them? I myself prefer aircrew and it is a major consideration in whether or not I buy a certain scheme/model or something else. I also have not been total impressed with HM offerings, they have made some special issues that grab my interest, but nothing that will make me buy more than one of any scheme.

a few of their 1/72nd already have aircrew. Eg HM F6F Hellcat "Gadget" Alexander Vraciu. Thats the neatest figure to me so far.
