Hobby Master Boasts, "Sweet Days Ahead"
Rumors have been running rampant the past few days concerning Hobby Master's proposed new toolings for 2011. According to one source, the following new products are being developed for the new year: 1:72 scale A-26 Invader light attack aircraft, 1:48 scale Hawker Fury biplane fighter, 1:72 scale Bedford QL series of trucks and a US M7 Priest self-propelled gun. Reports are also surfacing that they may dabble in the World War I era military vehicle market, with the British-built Mark IV Male and Female caisons serving as their first choice.
In their SkyMax Model's sister series of diecast military aircraft, plans are moving forward for a Douglas TBD Devastator torpedo bomber. The A-26 is a particularly important announcement since it signals their intent to produce twin-engine medium bombers, something collectors have been clammoring for over the past couple of years. With so many subjects to choose from and lots of liveries to pick from, it looks like Hobby Master is quickly becoming the "go to" choice for new product types on both the ground and in the air. We'll post product information as soon as its passed along by the distributor.......[posted 8/17/2010]
Hobby Master Recalls the Glory Days of the Tuskegee Airmen
It's no secret that the USAAF's black aviators during WWII, collectively known as The Tuskegee Airmen, were some of the most capable fliers of the war, racking up an astounding kill ratio while protecting allied bombers en route to their objectives over Nazi-occupied Europe. To commemorate their achievements, Hobby Master has announced their intent to model one of the most famous "Red Tailed" aircraft, that belonging to Lt. Robert Williams (HA7703). Nicknamed "Duchess Arlene", Williams, a member of the 100th Fighter Squadron, 332nd Fighter Group, shot down one of the Luftwaffe's Me 262 jet fighters on March 24th, 1944, and a pair of Fw 190s on March 31st. Modeled in 1:48 scale and bearing the unit's distinctive red-tailed insignia, this all-new warbird is expected to take flight some time in November .....[posted 7/15/2010]
Hobby Master Straps On the Delta Dagger
In its continuing bid to remain atop the diecast aircraft heap, Hobby Master unveiled the first replica of a Convair F-102 Delta Dagger. Part of the so-called Century Series of US aircraft, the Delta Dagger was the first operational supersonic interceptor and delta-wing fighter of the USAF (HA3101). Other new aircraft and vehicle builds were shown for the first time, including a second take on the F-22 Raptor, a RAAF F-111C Aardvark, new revs of the F-105 Thunderchief and F-4E Phantom II and an Italian Harrier jump jet. On the ground, armor enthusiasts can look forward to repaints of the Marder anti-tank gun, British Quad gun tractor and US Willys jeep with its top up. We hope to have all of the new combatants up in the July 2010 New Additions subsection by the close of business today...[posted 6/28/2010]
Hobby Master Hits Several Home Runs
In what could be their strongest release schedule to date, Hobby Master trotted out a bevy of new product destined for a third quarter release. Perhaps the most anticipated new offering is a 1:72 scale rendition of the General Dynamics F-111 Aardvark Strike aircraft. Bearing USAF markings and clad in a southeast asian camouflage scheme, the first 'Vark represents a bird that flew in the Vietnam Conflict circa 1972 (HA3001). Also announced was a BAC Strikemaster, a ground attack variant of the BAC Provost trainer (HA7002). Also shown for the first time is a 1:72 scale replica of the German Horch command car toting a 20mm Flak gun (HG4501), which is decked out in a striking desert tan camouflage scheme. Also coming is a brand new F-100 Super Sabre regaled in a southeast asian camo scheme, a USN F-4 Phantom that was embarked upon the USS Saratoga, a sharp-looking Beaufighter, and an LVT(A)-4 Amtank that was used in the Iwo Jima landings.....[posted 6/3/2010]
Hobby Master Gets Photogenic
You can't blame a company for experimenting when sales of its bread-and-butter line remain strong. Earlier today, Hobby Master indicated their intent to reproduce a McDonnell RF-4C, a photo-reconnaissance variant of its super-selling F-4 Phantom II fighter bomber. Modeled after a bird which flew with the Alabama Air National Guard (HA1951), we have high hopes for this important asset. Also announced was their first ever RAF F-4J Phantom II (HA1917), which saw yeoman service with No. 74 Squadron during the tail end of the Cold War....[posted 4/8/2010]
