Planes (2 Viewers)

[Rob]

Hi Guys,

Just got back last Friday from almost a whole month in the ‘States… Had a great time, met many old friends and, I hope, made a few new ones…

Now about these planes…
1. Don’t worry Binder (Gary B.) K&C’s intention is for approx. one new aircraft model every quarter. The upcoming FW 190 will be released in June/July… The Spitfire, I hope, will be August/September.

2. Because we produce aircraft it certainly does not mean we produce less fighting vehicles or historical figures. Even a casual glance at our releases over the last year proves that.

Our aircraft, landing craft, submarines etc. are in addition to our vehicle and figure releases not I repeat not instead of.

So, no worries there.
3. By continuing to develop and grow new areas of collector interest K&C has not only weathered the financial storms of the last couple of years but actually expanded considerably.

Hope this clarifies the situation… Best wishes to one and all… Happy
collecting… and happy flying!

Excellent news Andy,looking forward to the FW190 a lot,sounds great.But for me,to get a K&C Spitfire in this 70th anniversary of Victory in the Battle of Britain year,is going to be the highlight,can't wait!!

Right Now - King & Country is offering the best plane for the money - nicely priced for the market - the usual great detail work - very sharp !

The British and German lines will be something to see this year for sure.

Thanks Andy! It's always good to hear the word from the high command. Thanks for the clarification.

The Butcher Bird is one of my favorites, as well. Would like to see one with a black nose, spinner, and red trim. No yellow, please. -- lancer

My apologies. I did not realize that this request had been done with Air025 FW190 Black 8. It looks great. I sure wouldn't mind a close copy in KC's new aircraft series, though. -- lancer

Would still like to see a downed Me 109. Or Spit if you must.

Thanks mate.I hope to do an airfield dio with the forthcoming 190.

[Simpson & his donkey.]

Are you going to get the huts and how many.Simmo.

 

[Rob]

Yes Simmo two if poss,I want an an airfield for my Hurricane and Spit with them both in fighter pens and then maybe a smaller scene for the FW190.

Rob

 

[Simpson & his donkey.]

Thats one big diorama mate.Simmo.

 

[Rob]

Yes,finding the room is the difficult thing,but I'll worry about that after I've finished Simmo

Indeed,the FW 190 looks awesome, but are those wooden warbirds 1/30
or 1/32? They look smallish compared with the poly warplanes.
I also like the good quality of the canopy and I wish the 'cheaper' poly birds
were also supplied with those beautiful stands!!!

 

[jazzeum]

They're 1/30 although when you get to that size, it's rather difficult to tell the difference.

Am still hoping to convince Andy we need a Bolton Paul Defiant,would look great with the Spitfire and Hurricane.Would also love an ME110,but I'm guessing that would be Big!

No need to guess that the Me110 would be big at 1:30 - I can assure you it would be. And if K&C could make an Me110, they could make a Mosquito.
