Espied on Hannants today and already 4th on this week's best seller list - www.hannants.co.uk/product/X722095 x RNZAF options - 3 wartime and 2 x Japan occupation force I understand there is a 1/48 sheet dedicated solely to RNZAF Corsairs being released shortly. I wonder if anyone from New Zealand or active on this forum helped them with this project? Cheers Wally.

Cool. I assume a 1/32 sheet or two will also come along? I see they have Bryan Cox's aircraft, cool.

So far as I can tell, Xtradecal do not have any plans for a 1/32 sheet. I guess I'll contact them (and maybe beg) if Tamiya releases an F4U-1A/D & FG-1D kitset in 1/32, as rumoured, although I have reservations about the apparent lightness(on a computer screen at least)of the Xtradecal WW2 roundel colour. I feel if I want RNZAF roundels that colour I can easily get them here in NZ from Ventura Decals and, aside from not being able to get a fuselage roundel with the yellow ring all-around - which Xtradecal includes in 1/72 - Ventura's also have more accurate Blue-White-Blue ratio, which especially doesn't look right to me on Xtradecal's Wing Roundel-Bars? They've got a very Kittyhawk Blue-White-Blue ratio look about them to me. Just my 2 cents worth at this stage. I usually buy any RNZAF decals that anyone produces anyhow ...
