Hi there

As we've said before, we shouldn't take it for granted these classic early WnW kits will be available forever. I'm glad I've the Pup I bought safely tucked away for a future build.

All the best

Just requested for 2 x oldies to be sent from Mordor for that very reason - now just check the Early Aviation section for which other WnW kit bit the dust... Thanks for missing the D.Va extinction, btw

I kid, I kid... Grumpy frumps is just not my style!

Just wishing the WnW the long (and prosperous) years of producing future kits - just scratching the surface of the kits "I got to build"... If I can't build a RNAS PUP, then I'll take my long awaited Camel or Roland D.II? Rumpler D.I? Any of the Albatros C - types... Oh, well - I digress...

Maybe an Albatros D.V vs Sopwith Triplane Duelist pack? W.29 and Fokker D.VII OAW buddy pack?

I'm really torn between buying up what's out now or be the sucker in the deficit when the summer releases drop?

Which are the older kits that are likely sell out? Just to help me decide what to buy?

The Bristol,The SE5a and the Junkers J1 are all from the first batch – so should possibly sell out next? As I recall both Pups and the now sold out Albatrossen came in the second round, followed by the NINAK, Pfalz DIII, Gotha and the now also sold out single Hansa W.29... Hope that helps

Hi Stephen

If it's famous, it has probably sold well - conversely, there's most likely better stock of more obscure types . I bought one of the remaining SE5a kits recently to make sure I don't miss out. I'll likely get another Albatros and Fokker D.VII if I can while the going's good...

All the best

Cheers.
I'm leaning towards the Roland DVI and some sort of British type. The SE5a is looking like it might be another on my list.
I'm going to to have to get a couple soon while I still have 'disposable income'. My other half is serious about us buying a house in the next couple of months and I just know I may not have the chance to for a while. It will be also more difficult to sneak it past her
