Re: 1:144 Range Pictures

I was just told that the wings on all the upcoming IXO 1:144th scale planes will be plastic...
To keep the cost down.

Re: 1:144 Range Pictures

Received same email. Kind of wonder why they do not just go all plastic on these. With wings and tail assembly plastic, why bother doing just the fuselage in metal.
 

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.

I don't know who told you that but they are not strictly correct. Most will be but the Liore et Olivier LeO 451 has metal wings and horizontal tailplanes so I can only guess that some of the others will be the same.

Got my Altaya Ju-88 and B-26 Marauder today. Both are mostly metal (wings and fuselage). Engine cowls and horizontal tailplanes are plastic.
