I don't think that would work in poly. Here is the wooden they built.

A little bit befuddled on why KC warbirds in wood are 1/32 and polystones are in 1/30? I sold my KC Storch because it is off-scale in relations to the KC Luftwaffe figure pilots. The Figarti version was more on the side of 1/30.

Personally I do not mind companies producing warbirds in plastic to make it affordable durable, and with working features. A case in point is Century 21 models in 1/18 scale...if they can produce the Avenger Dive Bomber, P-38, P-51 Mustang, etc. in 1/18, that's almost about the same size as the 1/30 scale C-47 I once had (if you would recall I posted this wooden model years back). Going plastic will open doors for more warbird possibilities such as C-47's, B-17's, B-25's, Waco Gliders', and other historical warbirds which would complement our Figarti & King & Country colleections.

Just my point of view for Figart & KC to reconsider plastic medium as the other option for larger scale warbirds.

Thats not a bad idea and could incorporate some other medium parts to give it realism and weight.
