They literally ruin everything they touch! Aside from Rogue One and The Mandalorian, I heartily agree!

Id love a 1/16 - 1/24 scale version of my truck 1985-1997 Nissan pickup extra cab. Would love it with an actual engine also so I could swap in something besides the SOHC KA. There is a 3D printed version on Ebay... but its expensive and not that great. Would love the Tamiya detail touch! EDIT: Of course I see this thread and start another search to find this... If anyone has this, or sees it anywhere. Hi, Hello I need it! www.hlj.com/1-20-scale-1993-nissan-hardbody-4x4-pickup-amt01339

In stock at HLJ! And there are several to choose from, from the VF-1J to a Super VF-1S. And don't forget to buy a weapon set!

I used to get orders from them, but not any more. It hurts.

Still see them around occasionally. They also have a different one in 1/87 but it was an older rerelease (early 2000's ish) Nothing in a larger scale that I know of.

Yes, Air Tractor with and without floats is the obvious one but a Cessna Ag Wagon, Piper Pawnee, or Ayers Thrush / Turbo Thrush would also be great to have. There is a Polish model company that does a European Ag plane similar to the Air Tractor, I think it is a PZL.

Hmmm, I think I have a few First my reasonable choices, no particular order: 1/72 scale New tool Sikorsky S-61R (HH-3E Jolly Green Giant / HH-3F Pelican). All we have for this helicopter are the ancient Revell and Lindberg kits. Far too iconic of a helicopter not to have a decent modern kit. Korean War era early Bell 47 / H-13D. All of the 1/72 kits are of later 1960s models. Optional skid mounted stretchers of course required.Eurocopter AS-350 A-Star Agusta-Westland AW-139 Bell 206L Long Ranger (a stretched Jet Ranger) Ford Tri-Motor 4-AT. The Monogram kit is 55 years old, not very detailed and 1/77 box scale. The Airfix kit is the larger 5-AT,plus it is also 55 years old and getting hard to find (I'm just finding a reason to disqualify the Airfix kit to justify a new Tri-Motor kit ). 1/24 (or 1/25 I'm not picky) 1917-1971 Dodge pickup, pick any year in here as we have so few Dodge truck kits. 1989-93 Dodge D/W 350 pickup with Cummins diesel 1946-68 Dodge WM300 Power Wagon 1918-40 Chevrolet / GMC pickup. Again any year here. There is an ok selection of GM trucks from 1941 to 1999, but nothing earlier. New tool 1967-72 Chevrolet / GMC pickup. The old AMT kit shows its age, and this era was one of GMs best looking trucks. My much less likely but still desired list 1/72 Boeing Model 40. Douglas B-23 Dragon. Curtiss A-8 / A-12 Shrike Curtiss A-18 Shrike II 1/24 1968-72 Volvo 164 (1973 got the big 5mph bumpers). 1956-60 Saab 93 1968-83 Peugeot 504

I've been seeing that B-24 here and there Andy and it does indeed look like a great kit. That Devastator looks just as inviting in 1/48 scale. I mean.....Trumpy's 1/32 scale Devastator looks real cool and all but I've been looking forward to another offering of one of these planes to go up against the GWH and Hasegawa counterparts for a while. Monogram makes one as well but it goes without saying that it's not in the same class as the HobbyBoss, GWH or Hasegawa kits.

I have on in the stash and looks like a very nice kit.
