I agree too. I have no interest in WWII popular already done over and over aircraft, even if its a variant of Spit, P-51, etc its all the same to me. If Hobby Master does decide to make variants of popular WWII aircraft, they'll make a good one but they would just become another company making the same thing as everyone else. I love that Hobby Master does the aircraft we've been missing and wishing for over the years, that to me is what makes it special and different from the rest. If that goes away it would kill what I think is the most important part of the company. If you want Corgi, Franklin, etc to remake an aircraft, do a variant of one already made or change a scale, ask them and maybe petition them for it. They would already have the moulds but would just have to tweak them. This way Hobby Master wouldn't have to lose the #1 thing that makes them different and special, other collectors would get aircraft never done before instead of the same item with new cannons, cockpit, etc instead of looking a gift horse in the mouth and more importantly the market and hobby will stay fresh. My rant is done, sorry

Same feelings here. One of the major reasons I like Hobby Master is in their neat selection of planes that have not previously been made.

What if C1 modified the canopy of its BF-109E and gave us this, CC. Would you buy it?

I would be one of the first in line for one of these!

It has been rendered very well by Gemini Aces and Eagles International. I don't think even HM could make a better one.

Yup... I agree.

It's tempting but the iconic Legion Condor 109 has to be the Bf 109B. So I would keep my 109E as a Battle of Britain machine (or closed-spinner Barbarossa bird), my 109F as a North Africa machine, my 109G as a Graf tulip, and my 109K as a Defence of the Reich, spray-painted fuselage code plane. To me, that's my best shot at matching the major campaigns to the basic mark.
