Might be fun to cross that conversion with a P-47N.

Dare I hope for Xp-47J and XP-72 conversions?

Might be fun to cross that conversion with a P-47N.

It looks like the Academy wings might fit (the old Revell-Monogram P-47N has a one-piece lower wing/lower fuselage).

Thats a new one for me. In-line turbo prop?

Nah...just a honking big 2,300 hp Chrysler XIV-2220-1 16-cylinder inverted-V engine.



Mind you, you could probably modify it to be a whiff turboprop version a bit like I did here:

Will HPH now be releasing a 1/32 B-36?

Will HPH now be releasing a 1/32 B-36?

Kitbashing it 1/72 would be huge job.   Kitbashing their 1/48 B-36 to 1/72 is plenty much to deal with.

Will HPH now be releasing a 1/32 B-36?

Probably not though they do have a 1/48 B-36 (see below) and have done a Me323 in 1/32 and may be hinting at something with their 1/32 B-52 cockpit kit.

Good day, dear friends.
The war in Ukraine continues.
Missile attacks on the Ukrainian power grid affect all residents and industries in the country, power outages have become the norm. Electricity is turned on for 9-12 hours a day.
All this complicates normal work.
Despite all these difficulties, we continue to work
Let us introduce our new model of the XF-85 Goblin in 1/32 and 1/48 scale.
These kits are completely ready for sale. The delivery time after purchase is one to two months.
In these kits, we included small parts printed on a 3D printer that cannot be cast in rubber molds. I hope you like the result of our work.
Currently, 50 kits in 1/48 scale and 40 kits in 1/32 scale are available for purchase.

A new batch of kits will be available in December-January.
I hope for your understanding of possible delays in sending kits.
The 1/24 scale kit will be ready in 2025, it will be made in a limited series of 100-120 kits.
Thank you for your support, which you express in your personal messages, to us personally and to all of Ukraine.
Sincerely, Halberd Models.

Nice ! Not too small    Now we'll have to wait for a 1/32 B-29.

Well if you do the 1/48 one, there is the HpH kit...
