Certainly an interesting pair of Grumman aircraft that has been over looked for quite some time. Will both kits be released at the same time, or the more traditional method of one kit then the other at a later date?

This would be awesome in 1/32nd-com'on Zoukie-Mura! Imagine what you could do with this one! 48th is a good start though.

I don't normally venture beyond the WWII era, but these two birds are an exception. There is an AF-2 at the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, FL. Can't recall which version, but it is one huge aircraft! I am very happy with these releases. (Now, if they would only do a Martin AM-1 Mauler. Who knows, after this they just might).
