Next 1/48 from Hobbymaster?

Just a poll to see what we would like next in 1/48 from Hobbymaster. I know I would like a F4U Corsair or possibly Ki-44 Tojo since Marushin seems dead when producing new planes.
I also wouldn't mind seeing any of these in the poll.

Re: Next 1/48 from Hobbymaster?

I'm trying to keep my 1/48 collecting limited to WW 1 and pre-WW 2. So my wish list would be Curtis P-6E, Boeing F4B, Curtiss SBC Helldiver and Boeing P-26. So I didn't vote.

But Hobbymaster is making it hard to be disciplined.

Re: Next 1/48 from Hobbymaster?

Kind of like the idea of a Polikarpov I-16 or Macchi Mc 202 that they had previously mentioned. If I had to vote for one it would be the I-16. If were to be a vote on an aircraft not mentioned so far, have to lean towards the Curtiss P-36/Hawk 74A or maybe the the Boeing P-26 the leeG brought up in the previous post. He leeG, the Curtiss P-6E and Boeing F4B would make for some great looking models too (You have good taste in aircraft).
 

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.

Agree 100% I'd buy both no matter the cost.

Re: Next 1/48 from Hobbymaster?

If someone would make a decent 1/48 Bf-109 (I just do not like FMs version), I would buy as many as I could afford and get my bloody hands on. Plus I would like a good 1/48 to bridge the gap between the 1/72 and 1/32 109s I have. Also, what good is a 1/48 HM Spitfire if it does not have a 1/48 enemy to tangle with?

Has Hobby Master even taken a crack at the 109 in any scale? If not, I sure would like to see them try their hand at it.

The 109G really hasn't been done well by FM and could be much better if done by Hobbymaster (or Carousel for that matter).

You nailed it right there, the old phrase applies; truer words...................

Re: Next 1/48 from Hobbymaster?

Neither of above birds flow my boat in 1:48 scale. However, if F3F will prove to be successful venture, I certainly wouldn't mind seeing gorgeous I-153. Heck if HM will commit to production of I-153, I'll buy one F3F, a plane, otherwise, I would have no interest in.

Regards,

Sergey
