Sure puts my Altaya "Pete" to shame. I'd love HM to get into the seaplane business with a "Pete", "Jake", "Kofu","Paul", Arado Ar.196, Kingfisher, etc.

With its long green house, the Jake would make a great looking model.

I agree here, are we ever going to see the promised aircrew/pilots that HM said they would put out. Or is it just going to be on certain models that HM graces us with figures.

Let's hope so. I'm tired of all these grounded models!!

I don't think that Hobby Master is going to have any problems selling their Kate's. I think there are too many folks clamouring for good Japanese planes for their collections.

Buy HM's Kate and you may get what you really want?

You mean they'll send me Kate Beckinsale?! Put me down for two!



Ahhh, I'll buy the Kate anyway -- I've been clamoring for more 1:72 Japanese planes for years. I'd buy a Val, too... And then all the other planes fellow Hangars-on have mentioned, plus the MC.202.

Bring 'em on, HM! Poppa's got a diecast habit to feed!

If that's the case, I hope that HM will take it easy with panel lines.

Not really sure that panel lines is an issue on their 1/72nd scale line anymore. I have the latest HM Bf 110 and it does not have panel line "inking" as they call it. Personally Iiked them trying to give their models the look of its actually been outside, but they backed off on this with the Bf 110. I guess it is back to factory finish never been started look. I like the quality of what HM puts out so either way I will continue to purhase their products. I am just happy that they have yet again put out a new mold.

CC, with the quote Sergey had over his line about panel lines, I understood his statement to be a funny line, ie. go easy on the panel lines on Kate Beckinsale.
