A-Model will someday release their Manchester/Lancaster/Lincoln kits and sell tons, and maybe one day someone will wake up and release a Spitfire or 7. A nice LA-5 would be good too, and an injected BAE Hawk.<BR/>Oh, I wouldn't be surprised to see Sweet release another Me-109 after their FW-190D given the issues with their F-4....... :-OAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20128243.post-24410131425707504282007-09-15T23:42:00.000+00:002007-09-15T23:42:00.000+00:00I agree Saturn V is the most fantastic flying mach...I agree Saturn V is the most fantas<BR/>tic flying machine of all time, but<BR/>it is also just a milestone in the great history of missiles & space crafts. With the Space Shuttle, it is one of the rare models made by<BR/>the main manufacturers, which is<BR/>something I deeply regret. Just try<BR/>to get from them an Atlas missile -<BR/>the rocket that sent J. Glenn into<BR/>orbit - is absolutely impossible.<BR/>On the other side of the market,<BR/>cottage industry will provide you<BR/>17 different versions of this impor<BR/>tant machine,thank's to Tom Kladiva<BR/>(New Ware) and Glen Johnson (Real<BR/>space). But Atlas is also just ano<BR/>ther milestone in that story. Then<BR/>what's about these hundreds of less<BR/>known missiles that paved the way to space exploration ? What's about<BR/>these hundreds of spacecrafts, from<BR/>Explorers and Pioneers to the inter<BR/>stellar rovers of today ? Can we<BR/>hope grace the shelves of our col<BR/>lections with just a few of them ?BrettMayaAllisonToryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11674086773588202799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20128243.post-6288770330619049702007-09-09T19:38:00.000+00:002007-09-09T19:38:00.000+00:00there is just about every rocket ever produced any...there is just about every rocket ever produced anywhere in the modern era here:<BR/><BR/>http://www.realspacemodels.com/<BR/><BR/>the following do a great series of NSCA and NASA decals!!!<BR/>http://www.meteorprod.com/<BR/><BR/>anderson models seem to do a good range of current, proposed and abandon projects!<BR/>http://www.ninfinger.org/~sven/models/quick_looks.htmlbluedonkey99https://www.blogger.com/profile/09795623201613670031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20128243.post-66932988048660702482007-09-09T19:23:00.000+00:002007-09-09T19:23:00.000+00:00each to their own view!?- Fantastic Plastic and Gl...each to their own view!?<BR/><BR/>- Fantastic Plastic and Glencoe do "space" items.<BR/><BR/>- There are number of kits for American rockets, <BR/><BR/>- you can also find a lot of items relating to russion rockets, likge teh vostoks which they launched the worlds first satellite with and put a man into space with?<BR/><BR/>- as for ther american space programme, you should see what NASA write about Von Braun. still you are correct how many countries would it have been possible to for this rehabilitation to happen!<BR/><BR/><BR/>http://www.fantastic-plastic.com/<BR/><BR/>Airfix do a Saturn Rocket in 1/144<BR/>Revell do a number of Shuttles in 1/144<BR/><BR/>Revell and others, do a range of ISS (international space station) kits<BR/><BR/>you can get vostock and soyuz kits in 1/144<BR/><BR/>i think i may have even seen an Arriane?<BR/>magellen do a range of kits<BR/>http://www.magellan-project.demon.co.uk/catalogue.htm<BR/><BR/>or ninfinger<BR/>http://www.ninfinger.org/~sven/models/sputnik_rvw.html<BR/><BR/>you can even get launch complexs!<BR/><BR/>http://www.launchcomplexmodels.com/LC5.htmlbluedonkey99https://www.blogger.com/profile/09795623201613670031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20128243.post-4136796738380389822007-09-09T14:26:00.000+00:002007-09-09T14:26:00.000+00:00Aside Valkyrie(s), Globe & Cargomasters and Starli...Aside Valkyrie(s), Globe & Cargo<BR/>masters and Starlifters of all kind<BR/>there is a major subject main<BR/>manufacturers have forgotten :<BR/>SPACE CONQUEST.
