I'd like to see someone make a flying version, similar to the new-made Me 262s that are out there. That would be beyond awesome!

Great kits, the Zoukei Mura's Horten is top notch and also their range of pilots in 1/48 and 1/32 is fantabulous, very realistic poses and sculpting
Precious link Falo, thanks for sharing

Hi Gents,

here is a link for "Luft'46" diehards. Antares Models (AFAIK located in Argentina) offers a exquisite range of resin kits mainly "Luft'46" related:
