With all the new releases coming out there still has to be some subjects needed.
Here are my top 5 in 48th and 72nd scale
48th Fairey Fulmar Fairey Battle. (I know Classic Airframes did one but a new tool) Supermarine Swift Supermarine Scimitar Martin AM Mauler
72nd Tamiya shrink down their P-38 Re-release of any version of the Canberra F-101 Voodoo New tool F-89 Scorpion Supermarine Scimitar Gloster Javelin

1/350 German Secret Raider,like Atlantis,Orion,Pinguin or Kormoron
Also a new tooled 1/350 SMS Emden
Would love to see Tamiya do some 1/48 modern Migs or Su's
Really over the years manufacturers have hit up my wish list pretty good.

Fantastic thread....bad for me as it seems I need EVERY new kit that pops. I second the Tamiya requests for modern Russian Migs ans SUs...would be nice to have a shake and bake kit of thes subjects. I woukd like a new Raddschelleper Ost, the RIICH kit is nice but kind fiddly 35th of course. New tools of the SWS German halftracks, the ones with panzerferfers mounted or an AA varient. Don't let me start on my 1/16th wish list.... to BIG to mention LOL.

Love this thread… we get to see all these cool kits that perhaps, we didn’t know about!!! For me, my #1 Wish List item that I’ve just not been able to add to my stash is the 1/48 scale Eagle One, from Space 1999! 22” of modeling happiness, right there! …and of course, I’d need the SPACE:1999 22" Boodter Pack Accessory Kit, as well! There’s some crazy stupid prices out there for this kit

I would love a mainstream or at least plastic kit of the Canadian M-135 duce and a half. I believe there are resin kits out there but can't find one and have no new first born to sell to get it if I could. That is yours truly standing back there looking confused.

72nd Tamiya shrink down their P-38 This right here. They should blow it up to 1/32 while they're at it! What a kit.

Will pull the box out and take a look. It has been about 6 years since I touched it. It is actually pretty nice if I recall. I think I put it aside until I could figure out how to deal with the big bubble canopy and just sort of forgot about it. Not sure how easy it would be to find one. I got mine at a flea market for $1 about 10 years ago.

Sci-Fi - Aliens Drop Ship 1/72 - Last Starfighter Gunstar I 1/72 Please! I finally got a hold of the Halcyon drop ship...it's pretty rough. I think I'd be better off 3d printing one.

Here’s history of Bell 47 kits… www.scalemates.com/kits/academy-2194-bell-47d-mash-hl--107438/timelineA new tooled would be awesome with better molding technology is what I am hoping for.

The Halcyon kit??? I got mine for $75. It's really not worth that, but it's the only game in town (unless you own a 3d printer).

1/48 S-64 Erikson Fire Bomber (CH-54 Tarhe) - I think this could happen if ICM downsizes the 1/35 bird and does the fire suppression version. 1/20 Modern F1 Halo car and a Halo Indy car. 1/48 Jayhawk

Most of my wish list stuff older and either hard to find or more money than I want to spend. Here are a few-
Testors Ferrari California spyder. Revell Grand Am funny car (I heard rumor that Atlantis might be repopping this one) Aoshima Lamborghini Aventador - this one will probably happen someday. MPC ‘74 Firebird Anything from Pocher. Always wanted one of their kits. ALL of the old white box Monogram car kits.
Can I wish for more time and skill too??😁

Didn't have Revell a MASH helicopter in 1/35, too? Yes, the MRC H-13 is the same as the Academy kit. And yes, Revell also had a 1/35 H-13 kit. This is my build of the Revell kit.

Well, since its a "wish" list. I will come out with the unobtainables currently on my radar. From least obtainable to most attainable
1/20 MFH 1/20 Lotus 56 Indianapolis 1/12 Meng McLaren MP4/4 Whatever 1/12 Tamiya F1 car they pop out next. 1/12 Italeri Bugatti Type 35b I've always wanted to build Airfix's ancient 1/12 Bentley Blower And finally Tamiya's new 1/24 GMA T.50
I'm quite sure there are others but that'll do for a start.

I've herd that Arma Hobby is coming out with a 1/72 P-51D/F-6D. I'll be all over that. I like the Airfix kit but this last batch I'm building has a lot of flash

The Arma stuff seems really strong. I have one of their PZL P.7s and it appears to be very nice. And The hurricane unboxing I watched looked excellent indeed.

I've got a good number of kits that I'd really like to see on the shelves but the one that really sticks out in my mind is for someone to release a decent Ford Maverick kit. These seem to be the forgotten sports cars in the modeling world these days and the only kits that are out there to represent them are the LONG gone Jo-Han offerings that cost over $300 now to acquire. I'm lucky enough to have two Jo-Han Maverick kits in the stash and one Maverick funny car that I got as a gift from a friend of mine. Such beautiful cars:

Such beautiful cars: Someplace around here I have 3 of the promo models of the Maverick. My dad worked at the plant that made them and when they were first released all the kids got one. I of course immediately stole my sister's ones. Two are gold and one is the orange. Pretty sure they are what the Jo-Han kits were based on.
