All 1/35 Scale, I believe some of these were in the works but got stalled as the trends moved to other vehicles.

  1. LAV 6.0
  2. LAV Bison
  3. T-LAV Conversion set
  4. E-LAV and LAV III Infantry Section Carrier from Real Model to release finally
  5. Plastic indy link Diehl 213B tracks

Hoping for a new Sepecat Jaguar GR.1/3 in 1/72.

Would be nice if Airfix followed up their Liberators with a Coastal Command boxing. Ideally with the option of a 4-gun tail turret.

Maybe a Hampden in the same scale from ICM, but that probably is wishful thinking.

Seconded. I have a soft spot for old Tamiya, but it’s showing it’s age. A new tool would be very welcome.

Would be great to see some M3/5 half-tracks in 1/35. Especially the British versions. Seems a strange gap in the market.

I am good for the next two or three years but will throw a few into the pot.

1/35 USA T28 Super Heavy Tank / Assault Gun / Oh my GAWD, Magnum!: The people at Dragon announced an updated version of their T28. If they fixed all the major problems and it really is a value kit, well great! If they botch it… Go, Go, Team Takom. Please include hard plastic tracks. I do not care what Uncle Sam '46 nonsense decals you put in the box but please include the correct serial numbers for both real vehicles.

1/35 USA T54E1: Team Dragon made one but it has issues. I do not care if Team Dragon fixes theirs or Team Takom takes it on or whatever. I want an accurate turret, hard plastic tracks, and a reasonable price. Please include the correct serial numbers.

1/35 USA M6 Heavy Tank: Again, Team Dragon made one but it has issues. I do not care if Team Dragon fixes theirs or Team Takom takes it on or whatever. I want accurate major dimensions, hard plastic tracks, and a reasonable price.

1/35 USA P40 Warhawk: Go, Go, Team Border Model! Looking forward to the Mustang. Keep at it!

1/35 Space: 1999 Eagle Transporter based on 102 foot or 110 foot prototype. It is a wish list…

  • Peugeot 205

I wish companies made cold war ships from 1955-1985. Because there is a LOT of class of cgn’s, dd’s, and frigates. Either from USN or soviet navy. I love all of your guy’s replies!

Three things on my wish list:

  • Kotare 1/32 P-51A Mustang (better yet, the NA-73X prototype);
  • ICM 1/32 Stampe SV4 (they’ve done nearly every other biplane trainer of the era);
  • Any mfg 1/32 Piper Cub (civilian, not the L-4).

As a bonus….we need a new 1/72 Bell X-1. Existing kits are old and aftermarket decals hard to find but that doesn’t quite reach wish list level.

You’re absolutely right. Odd why they are ignored. If someone brought out a nice modern 1/350 Long Beach I might even be tempted to build a ship!
