Tamiya have announced 2 new kits for 2007.
Both kits are in 1/48th scale.
With both kits being from different era''s, there should be something for everyone to look forward too.

Hi Andy
first congratulations to your new full time occupation!
You almost got me .. I though you know, what a/c 100 will be .. I will spare you me usual comment (Rowan knows ) ... maybe you should add the Jimmy as it is as well usable for a/c guys and I personally hope there will be a conversion for a fuel truck
best wishes

Is Tamiya seriously only releasing 2 A/C kits for the entire 2007? Or are these the new kits to date?
Thanks Andy !

Hi Rudi
NO, not necassarily! (although 2 a/c for a year are pretty much ... OTOH the Swordfish is no new model, just another version of their existing kit)
Tamiya is only announcing items that are (almost ) ready for sale and will hit the market until the next toy fair. In February it is Nuremberg, and then follow two or three in Japan (Shizuoka in April/May and Tokyo in September/November IIRC) if they have special interest items as the Char B1bis it will also be published on other locations (the Char was presented on a show in France --- forgot which)
Also I think they will save a/c No.100 for their home show ....
best wishes
