Now this is a development, Takom Wings

Don’t know anything else, but the potential is there for all manner of kits.

Hopefully they work on their instructions with this new Wings !

I was hearing the had the right to WnW kits. That would be interesting to see them back out on the street. Feels funny talking about a Chinese company intellectual property rights as they steal from themselves and everyone else.

If new molds, my guess would be P-47 to compete with Miniart kit, P-51 or Bf-109. If a jet, F-16. We shall see.

Awesome. I hope these models are in 1/35 scale.

They already do a full line of AH-64 Apaches in 1/35.

Hopefully they will release other 1/35 helos.

It will be interesting to see Takom’s kit of the 229A compared against Zoukei-Mura’s.

My guess is a cheaper, not as detailed kit but a decent kit overall for the price. We shall see.

The Ho 229 is a really neat plane and deep in my want zone but that particular model does not interest me–wrong scale and way too complicated. Cheers for people who enjoy such things. :slightly_smiling_face:

If the people at Takom ever release a closed up, Blitz Build version of the same plane in 1/35, I will definitely buy one or two. :slightly_smiling_face:

All the helicopters I really want are already available in 1/35 scale–AH-1, AH-64, CH-54, UH-1, Jet Ranger. I am definitely open to more.

If a miracle happens and someone releases good Century Series jets in 1/35 scale, whoa, that will put a dent in the 401K.

my fingers have lingered over the ZM kit many times, seen it in my localish model shop too but always resisted. If the price is good on this I may have to fight harder to resist.

more science fiction…

Zoukei-Mura also offers the Ho 229 in 1/48 and 1/72, if the 1/32 kit is too big and expensive.
