Post by: Ryan K on Mon 08/16/10 08:04 PM
What kits would you like to see FOD covers for?

1/32 scale F-4s, and the 1/48 scale A-5.  I know that they have been available from aftermarket manufacturers in the past, but they go out of production and seen to never return.

AMS Resin still sells 1/32 covers for the F-4.

They currently have the Revell kit red resin in stock but sold out for the Tamiya kit. Which do you need?

I love Harold and what he does for large scale modelers, but those durn F-4 FOD covers are consistently sold out and are never replenished fast or consistently enough.

Ryan, I personally don't need any because I don't have any F-4s in my stash at the moment (curse you, Bill L1!) -- just a suggestion for a kit that is still quite popular and really needs something to fill the visible void.

Not sure how Darren or Harold are notified about resupplies. I now they do talk about when they have resupplied the companies. In Harold's case, there is a shipping issue they are working through.
