The Glaring Omissions

In hobby shops full of Messerspitstang kits and the space ships of the latest franchise movie, it is actually painful to stride the aisles looking for the missing links.

I concentrate most effort on 1:72 scale aircraft and have long built the standards. I’ve built the semi-standards, and a fair few of the obscurities as well. I will not say that I did not enjoy myself in this, but I’m still waiting for some of the kits that could reasonably be expected.

They may have been made once and passed into obscurity…but the time has come to either re-pop them or make new moulds for these classics.

I wish to purchase a Lockheed Hudson, and Airspeed Oxford, a Fairey Battle, and others of this era. A new and accurate Halifax. A Blackburn Skua or Roc. It cannot be impossible to mould and sell them in thousands.

If Airfix can mould a Supermarine Swift, they can make anything.
