Looks like the Roland D.VIa and the Pfalz D.IIIa are near release.!

I did a Google on WNW and found this.

Scroll down and find where Richard Alexander has placed two finished kits in a contest.

Nice one Stephen

The Roland looks interesting, Lozenge and wood – my favourite... Was hoping for the DVII though – oh well he who waits and so on...

Thanks for the peek!

How did I know you'd say that Terri....tempting isnt she? You built the Roden didnt you Terri? would be interesting to compare the two dimensionally etc, I know there'll be a difference in details and such.

Thanks for posting that Stephen. There is a growing unrest in the WWI modeling community over WNW's seemingly failure to keep schedules. I for one, like most modelers, have plenty in my stash to keep me busy, ergo I am not concerned with schedules, when they are released I will buy, plain and simple. It is good to see some movement and seeing these two fine examples should quell the unrest.
I like them both. The Roland and Pfalz both look stunning and I will pop for both once they become available.

An additional note folks. I you will find that these were in the Vendors display areas. Not in competition. Also its been hinted that I'll see these for review. Yahoo!!!!

If you want me to review one of them, I WILL clear my bench and lock the untergefrieter up in the closet. You know he really does get impatient at times..

Hi Stephen,

I wouldn't get too excited - these two kits were seen in built up form, with boxes etc at the Wellington IPMS show last October! A year in gestation already - not counting the HB W29, Gotha, RE8, and Fokker DVIIs that were also on show then.
Patience, patience.

Cheers,

Graham
