Here''s a look at one of the latest In Action titles from Squadron Signal - the Fieseler Storch. When will we get a new kit of this in 1/48 scale? Should we start a petition to the kit manufacturers here on Armorama?...

Hi Rowan!

I would sign the petition right away... for those who can't wait, there is the ESCI kit but I never managed to find it! If someone can point me to one!
A least a Manufacturer could re-release a new kit with the old molds... with some resin and photo etched parts! Like AMTech's Hs123!

P.S. Thanks and good work on the review! Are there pictures of the "circus" Storch in the book?

Hi Jean-Luc

I built the Esci kit in the '70s - the fuselage was such a strange affair (with a flat bottom...) that it prompted my first effort at conversion/correction. The inaccuracy may be why it wasn't re-released along with the Henschel... who knows?

All the best

Thanks for the review, Merlin!

Consider this my petition signature for a new 1/48th Fieseler Storch.

I build exclusively in 1/48th, and have wanted a Storch in the collection for a long time.
