wurgerfan Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Still waiting to see a definite release date.It appears the A-3/A-4 will be the first to be released. Seems the series keeps being pushed back. Going on two years when ZM first announced the new A series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators James H Posted May 5, 2016 Administrators Share Posted May 5, 2016 They actually first told me about it in 2012, so it's rocking on some time now..... At least this won't need a little piece of plastic to prop its tail up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark 'ozzy' Ostler Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 <p> From Cybermodeler's report on the IPMS Nats: http://www.cybermodeler.com/special/ipms2014.shtml Finally, Zoukei Mura Inc. will be producing the Focke Wulf 190 series in 1/32 scale as well as introducing a new kit concept. With the the SWS series of kits, you have lots of details that make up the kit and while they take time to build, the finished resut is a masterpiece, They've heard the feedback from some of their customers looking for kits that are less complex but still have lots of details. The result is a new BASIC series that will use advanced molding technology to provide lots of details molded into fuselage interiors and other assemblies that would be provided as separate parts in the SWS series. The subjects coming in the Fw 190 series include: Fw 190A-3 (Basic) Fw 190A-4 (SWS) Fw 190A-5/6/7 (Basic) Fw 190A-8 (SWS) Fw 190D-9 (SWS) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark 'ozzy' Ostler Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Really an FW180 A8 & D9, I can't wait, that is the best news I've heard this year, oh boy oh boy oh boy is all I can think of to say, well at the moment anyway. One can only hope for a P47 razor & buble, P38 fork tail devil, and the sinister looking Me 410, my life would be complete. Thank you ZM, the 'gods' are finally listening! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark 'ozzy' Ostler Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Thanks for the thumbs up mikester. Man I can't wait for the D9, my fav kraut fleiger at the moment but changes like the weather lol. A good quality pic will always captivate my attention but I like most German aircraft..... Take the new ZM Do 335 Phiel, didn't do much for me until I saw 'SWS' kit ...phew cocka doodle doo ! Definitely one for the stash but I will definitely grab butcher bird as well. Keep up the good work ZM and you will take a load of cash from me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark 'ozzy' Ostler Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Hi efrick, would you know if the aircraft pictured is Joachim Priller's mount, I'm aware that he flew an FW with the eagle motif, I really need some good books 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mikester Posted August 24, 2016 Author Members Share Posted August 24, 2016 Not Priller's aircraft, his "Black 13" carried the Gruppenkommandeur markings and the Ace of Hearts emblem under the cockpit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark 'ozzy' Ostler Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Thanks mikester, as u can see I'm captivated by a good photo, and that's a pretty darn good image, must be an early wulf by the looks. Crickey I can't wait for ZM to release these beasts, I'll prob build an early & late A8, then my all time fave, the long snout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark 'ozzy' Ostler Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 At the Nats their owner also said they're going to do an F-86 Sabre, an F-4 Phantom and an F-14 Tomcat.... Pretty ambitious, if they'll also do a series of Fw 190A's! I just hope that their "basic" series won't have "half" detail molded in. Rather less wing spars and ribs or no invisible details like fuel tanks or complete radiators but still separate parts for guns and cockpit details.

Mark 'ozzy' Ostler Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Hi Erik, I'm hearing you bro, but innacurate wing spars should not really be a problem once they have been sandwiched between the skin , nobody will see it anyway. I just hope they don't make half a 'donk' like the hasegawa attempt a few years back, that was just lame and another waste of cash. As long as the outside visible bits such as wing root, gun cowling, and a complete motor is there I will be happy. Cheers Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark 'ozzy' Ostler Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 What I mean is if the kit is dimensionally correct it will have a place in my collection. I've now aquired a ZM owl, I'm totally awed by it. Gotta finish the tamiya big blood sucker first though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
