Hobby Master releases for September

Some interesting releases from Hobby Master for September. First off, there's the 1/48 scale P-51D Tuskegee Mustang!!!! Guess where Tuskegee Trading gets its name!!!

Other Highlights include the F4B-4 biplane fighter, EF-111 Raven and black F-4 Phantom Vandy 1. Very cool!!! There's also the Stanford Tuck Spitfire and new Panzer II.

Skymax Cessna L-19 Bird Dog news.

SkyMax has decided to cancel their proposed SM3000 series CESSNA L-19 / 0-1 BIRD DOG.

SkyMax regrets any disappointment this causes but hopes to be able to resume this project sometime in the future.

Red Falcon MiG-23 Update.

Bad news pertaining to Red Falcon Diecast. Red Falcon have advised the industry that they have decided to pull back and indefinitely postpone work on the MiG 23 before final production began. It is a very disappointing development indeed, but we need to understand how large an undertaking the "from the ground up" production of a high-quality model can become, it may have been too great an obstacle for a start-up company.

Red Falcon MiG-23 Update.

Manufacturing refinements have led to delays for the Red Falcon MiG-23 Flogger. These growing pains are to be expected when a small start-up company is working to configure a new mold and tackle quality control issues. Red Falcon are working diligently on fine-tuning the production process to ensure that the finished model meets collector expectations for both quality and accuracy.

One or two new models in stock.

The new SAA DC-4 in 1/200 by Hobby Master is in stock!!!! It is an absolute stunner!!! There's also the new Corgi Cobber Kain two blade Hurricane. Due shortly are some Dragon Warbirds. I've added the Korean Sharkmouth Mustang and we're expecting an F-4F Wildcat or two, P-47D razorback, desert Spitfire Mk.V and an F-16 Fighting Falcon. Don't be surprised if they don't all make it to the BoB listings!!!
