Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 28, 2018 Administrators Posted September 28, 2018 No pictures yet, but Wingnut Wings has announced a new 1/32 scale Lancaster kit. Dambusters and a B.1 and a B.lll! More to follow. Pics when available! Kit is in development now for possible release in 2019. This news is absolutely HUGE guys. God Save the Queen! 5

Members Mikester Posted September 28, 2018 Members Posted September 28, 2018 Really surprising since HK Models is so close to being done. I guess when you're rich you can do whatever you want though! 2
rkranias Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 WNW quality in a 1:32 Lanc? You do the math. 3

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 28, 2018 Author Administrators Posted September 28, 2018 Think about this folks. Wingnut Wings is taking their quality into the WW2 scene. A truly surreal feeling this is. 3
smitty44 Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 I need a tissue! F*** me running! Any word on release # 3, not that I care after Lanc news, but could be anything now! 3

Any word on release # 3, not that I care after Lanc news, but could be anything now! I hope they stick with WW.1. Yeah, WW2 as well, but keep WW1 as the core. 2

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 28, 2018 Author Administrators Posted September 28, 2018 Good news though. I seriously doubt this will impact the HK kit. WNW is probably a year away, giving HK a year to themselves. 1
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 28, 2018 Author Administrators Posted September 28, 2018 Looks like poor Jennings is butthurt over on TOS. If he’s pissed, I’m ecstatic.. the poor baby. Jennings Heilig Senior Member LSP_Members 9,095 6,472 posts Gender:Male Location:Sunny Tucson, Arizona Pardon my French, but un-F**KING-believable. My opinion of WnW and Peter Jackson just dropped into a cesspool. What a low life move. Very childish.
seiran01 Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 I have contacted Dave @ WNW, he can confirm that over 8 years of research, design and tooling have gone into this model.... so far. Damn this is going to be epic. 3
Ivan Ivanovich Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 As long as this will not further impact the already somewhat stalled HKM F-4K/M, I'm fine with it. 3
JohnB Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 I hope this isn't just a joke. It would be nice though if WNW does get into WWII a/c. How about a B-26 Marauder and a A-26 Invader? 3

smitty44 Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 I doubt this is a full blown venture into WWII. He is, albeit slowly, making a Dambusters move and his people have probably been all over Lanc's for that to begin with. 3
seiran01 Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 but wait, are the fuselage rivets raised or recessed? 2

Only if Marauders and Invaders were to star in one of his next movies. WNW's decision to tackle the Lanc, thus going head-to-head with HKM, could be largely connected to Peter jackson's ongoing The Dambusters remake. Quite obviously Mr Jackson didn't contempt himself with full-scale Lanc mock-ups... And we all know one thing for sure: He's nuts! 2

smitty44 Posted September 28, 2018 Posted September 28, 2018 To think Mr Alexander stood there, silent, amongst a bunch of us fanatics…..and said nothing. I told you Martin we should have used truth serum. 2

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 28, 2018 Author Administrators Posted September 28, 2018 I won’t dignify the wishing for new kits circle of doom. However, if he’s doing the Barnes Wallis story, then back up a couple years and give us his beautiful creation, the Vickers Wellington. Can you even imagine the WNW treatment on the Wellie’s fabric and geodetic x frames? 3
