Apologies if this is not the correct area to ask this question, but since Petr from AZ lurks here: I recall that a few years ago AZ had a P-47B listed on their "future releases" page but that it was (I think) cancelled. Is there any chance of seeing it re-emerge? I have been going through a P-47 phase for the last several months and have become quite captivated by the brute size & shape of the "Jug", in addition to its combat record. I'm sure I am not the only one who would like to see a P-47B in this scale. |

Good question. There were also two (IIRC) Ki-54 variants, which have similarly disappeared. |

I hope the Cessnas have not disapeared also. I was really looking forward to something new in that area........ a P-47B would be a welcome addition too ! |

The Ki 54s and the Cessnas would be most welcome. I might even go for a P-47B. |

While I agree with all the above (esp. the P-47B and Ki-54), I am wondering about the status of their CR.32 project... |

What is wrong with the 32s on the market? |

The only (injected) CR 32 available in our scale is the ages' old Supermodel kit: it is probably older than many of the members of our forum. Albeit reasonably accurate for such an old model, it suffers from very crude details and/or their lack thereof, not to mention (speaking from experience) the nightmarish fit and alignment of the wing struts. A small Italian firm also did a nice resin CR 32 back in the 90s, but it was quite expensive and hard to find outside Italy. Z. |

Dear friends, I have a little time to answer you. Yes P-47 has long been in the preparation. These are the P-47B, P-47C and P-47D-1,2,5 . Now small parts redesign in 3D modeling for CAD-CAM.Model large parts will be in HQT metallic form. The term is still unknown. Decals, cammo and canopies have been made. A good model needs to calm preparation. It is the same CR-32. It is being prepared in 3D technology. Cessna C-150 and C-180/185 are prepared for short run production of molds. They will be very soon. Ki-54 are in agreement with MPM production ceded to produce at their firm. Our Ki-54 is canceled. |

Thanks Petr. That is a very informative response that is gratefully received. Any chance you can give us a sneak peek at the P-47 markings? |

Peter, Please do a an early P-47D4/5 boxing for the 348th Fighter Group (Kearby's Thunderbolts). Some nice markings possibilities. Also, PLEASE include a "Brisbane" tank as made by the Fifth Fighter Command repair depot in Brisbane, Australia. The Brisbane tank has never been offered in any scale for a P-47 kit to my knowledge. Please see the links here for details. clicky clicky clicky best regards, Bill |
