Thats right, Trumpeter is to begin (if not already begun) work for a 1/32nd Dauntless for us "Slow But Deadly" Fans. Release to be scheduled late this year to either 1st or 2nd quarter of this year. :-)

Hi there

I thought you were being a bit optimistic with the first date! But, after their Avenger and Me 262, it should definitely be worth waiting for!

All the best

All I care is that someone is making it and hopefully give it some justice.

Now that just may make it to the OMeara house.
But I'll wait for all the "xperts" to dismantle it even before it's released before I decide..... :-)

Aren't there sprue shots from Nuremberg? Not sure which site I saw them on but was surprised to see them. I didn't know they had one in the works.
