Good news or not?
Revell is promising a reboxing of the CH-53 in 1/48 scale for some time now but it is postponed every month until the next month. Systematic planning errors or one-off production problems with the moulds of that model?
The mission: Beat the stash.
Almost conquered: MIG-29, Blackhawk, Skyray, Skyraider, fouga
Main battle:Demon, Skyhawk, F-14, CH-53
Stash reserve:Blackhawk, CH-46, 47 en 53; SU-7, Eurofighter, mohawk, hellcat, F-16D, 6x Fouga Magister, Voodoo

It looks like a re-issue of the old Matchbox kit. At a minimum you'll want the
Cobra Company cockpit set, and you may wish to kitbash the wings and nose from a Revellogram or Tamiya single seater.
