How about these Betty's right here.

Be cool to see one of these made by HM wouldn't it guys.....
A 1:72 Betty bomber so long overdue...
This would be a sell out i believe..

He was a complete fighter pilot.......Colonel John C. Meyer Deputy Commander of the 352nd.

Re: How about this Betty right here.

The Betty would be a much need addition. I can think of a few more Japanese bombers that it would be nice to see.
 

Brewster Buffalo, Hawk 75A, Fokker D.XXI, Polikarpov I-16, Fiat G.50, Macchi C. 200, PZL P.11c, Fieseler Fi 156 Storch ,,,, now those are real planes.

Re: How about this Betty right here.

Looks pretty cool -- I'd want one in the livery of Yamato's last ride though I think. And I'd probably only get one Betty.

Re: How about this Betty right here.

1/48th plastic kits of the Betty are none to cheap. Saw one at Hobby Lobby and it was sitting at $60.00. That is without all the fun after market stuff.

They fit the whole battleship in a Betty? Talk about flattened tires...

LOL -- yes, of course, Yamamoto. Believe it or not, I type for a living... which I guess explains all my typos 'round these parts

They would have to be the earlier (nicer looking) P-38G variants. I want a Yamamoto mission Betty too!
