  2. There was a Me323 Gigant on the original list, unfortunately Altaya decided against,
    The new biplane series is being released in Portugal at the moment and will no doubt appear in Spain next and possibly soon after in France, Altaya must have shares in the Spanish ebay power sellers. The F100 Super Sabre listed on ebay is a mystery, the same aircraft was on a questionnaire sent to me last year by Altaya, but as always they are being cagey, brian

  3. It is shame if they have dropped the Me323!

    i dont know the isting for the sabre? do you have number for it!?

    I know there are some american seller who are mistaking the the Arado 234C as a 1/144 when all the Euro Atalya dealers are sayng its 1/72

  4. Hi BD, Interesting site.
    I was looking forward to the Gigant, fascinating 3 He111s to tow the glider version, I have a video tape with it on, but as the BV 222 fills my largest box I would probably have had to crop the wings.
    The F100 is bugging me an ebay seller has that and a Spad listed, both of which were on a questionnaire in the same markings Altaya sent to me last year proposing a new 1/72nd fixed wing series (which may have included an Arado)and a 1/72nd helicopter series, I have pictures but cannot see how to attach them.
    The Altaya Arado was 1/72nd in green with a V1, I had two with my subscriptions the 1/144th I believe was issued by Atlas.
    If you are interested I have managed to obtain a list of the Altaya Panzers to No 39
    Regards brian
