Ooh! Wonder if it a scaled down of the 1/8th of days gone by, hopefully with some fresh reference thrown in to the mix.

I guess if it is succesful in selling the Dr.I will follow. Nice.

1:16 Scale, exactly double the size of 1:32...............Keith, with your brand of AMS this one could be lethal!
Despite the size and storage/display challenges I may have to look into this little gem, beautiful!

My question is thus: Will it fit on the stump?

Best

Roden has announced their release of the 1:32 Nieuport 25 #629 and a Spad VII #617 (in Russian markings) for 2013. By the way Roden posted a bit for me back on 11.27.12. I would like to thank them.

Looks like Squadron will bring out the Roden 1:32 Pfalz D.III in Bruno Stachel's lozenge covered bird.





The future of Roden: While some people claim to have gotten the word from Mr. Vladimir Chumak (of Roden) saying they would not be doing anymore WWI aircraft kits, the truth is they will.

"Dear Mr. Stephen Lawson,
Thank you for your letter.
Don’t worry, Roden will make all kinds (WW1,WW2 and New Age) of aircraft kits!!! Mr. Vladimir Chumak said maybe we would pay more attention to WWII aircraft than WWI aircraft."

On that last pic, beside the blurb... the plastic bags, possibly a release of the upgrade Resin parts for the Encore kits on their own?

If so Its good for people with Roden beasties in their Stash.

One day I'm really going to have to drop down a scale and build one of Mirage's 1/48th two seaters.
