More 1/35 th scale helos.
That said, I wish I could find to the first of these I wrote back in the rec.scale.models newsgroup days. 22+ yrs is a long time and a LOT of kits I drooled over back in the day have been released.
Many many of them sit on the shelves of the stash today.
I know it's out there in resin, but a 1/35 PACV in injection plastic is STILL on my list.
I've said this the last couple of years, but maybe we ought to have a 'look back' thead with all the great stuff we have in the last year.

What we really need in Braille Scale is a decent injection-moulded plastic kit of the CVRT Scimitar/Scorpion. Also on the UK vehicles theme, what about a Chieftain and Centurion? Yes I know that Airfix produced these kits many years ago, and ACE Models have the Scimitar and Scorpion in their range, but these are fairly basic when you compare them with current offerings.

I know Revell's British AFV is getting long in the tooth and can use some updating to bring the kit up to todays standards and to correct some of the errors.

Zvezda released modern US and Russian/Soviet figures in their Art of Tactic range and Aoshima has released some modern Japanese figures of which I'm waiting on mine from Dragon Models USA. Unfortunately Zvezda is getting out of the figure side in 1/72nd.

Ah the memories! rec.models.scale - the training ground for spending money on kits before eBay came around. You can indeed find those old posts even today. I did:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/rec.models.scale/2Tw78KfrpzI
Should you happen to read it, and wonder what the hell I'm talking about when I ask whether an idler wheel pushes or pulls the hull, it references one of longest running (and silliest) threads I've ever seen, to this day. I did not start it by the way.
And Sean did indeed join the Army. And I did indeed never finish most of those kits, just continued to add to the insanity.
I just realized - I DID raise a wingnut! He's a helo mechanic.
As I wished everyone in that post eighteen years ago - Happy New Year!

I want to see black label unscrew themselves and release an accurate kit under their label, I also would like to see more modern subjects released maybe a 1.35 scale Apache would do the trick for me.

They could work with both scales.
Personally, it is the 1:35 scale which interests me.
