I saw a few things on that on the internet. A lot of the same staff is on. Only one kit for know however. A 1:32 Spitfire. Although I love the plane, and have a few in my stash to build (3) and one done, I would have preferred they release something else has they are so many from Eduard, ICM and Tamiya on the market

I'd like to see a better 1/32 Hurricane, but I fear it isn't sexy enough to sell well. The spitfire has all the glory and hence the sales.

I would love one too on my side. But has you said not sexy enough even though it played a crucial role in the Battle of Britain

I heard the On The Bench guys talking about them. Looks promising. I'm interested to see if they have a laser focus on a certain era or kit type.

I agree 100%, especially having had the dis-pleasure of building the Fly offering. :(

    A brand new 1940 era Spit. Joy :clap: :clap: :clap:

    The big question though is the Lanc. Will they push through with the Lancaster? They've already done test shots, I've seen a build log, and it looks incredible. :crazy:
    Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:

    Intellectual property may still reside with the previous owner. He was a bit weird about that sort of thing, happy not sharing and didn't want anybody to benefit from his efforts even when offered a tonne of cash. That,s my understanding from what I gleaned from previous staff interviews of WNW. Of course there may have been a few copies floating around that could be useful.
