Hello Rick, and greetings to all other devotees of his fine line of 1/30 scale WW II items.
I like the 1/30th scale "Owl" that I just bought. It is a fine piece of work and can form the basis for a range of similar German, WW II items.
As to what Rick should do next, I suggest a range of "Defending the Reich," aircraft that will include all the German jets, including the Arado twin-engine bomber. This way, there is an ongoing popular theme that can be branded and marketed effectively (I have a background in marketing, advertising, publicity & promotion).
Anyway, all the relevant aircraft will fill a highly popular niche. There are also a few non-jet aircraft that fit nicely into this theme, such as the Dornier Pfeil (late war, push-pull prop fighter).
Also, Rick, I've heard from many collectors who want a transport/lift crane for the V-2. This way, if you produce one, you'll keep alive another of your fine themes.
Shhh, keep this secret but there is an obscure German jet that you can do that no one has done in any diecast. PM and I'll give you the details. This aircraft was launched vertically from a metal frame and had rockets in its nose. Any guesses?
