I just really wish they'd be doing all this stuff in a civilised scale, namely 1/72!!

I'd've bought one of everything they've released so far, if they were in 1/72. Indeed, I've even considered getting the F-94 and F-35A even in 1/48... (though on that note, why is there still not an F-35A in 1/72?)

I thought CyberHobby did/was doing one?

Not that Google could tell me. Though I did find one website that said Italeri's got one coming this year, but I didn't find it on their website, so I dunno...

Yeah, that's I think where I found the mention. Though find it odd I didn't see it on Italeri's website? The only thing I find there related to the F-35 is a 1:100 die cast model...

Both Italeri and Academy have announced kits of the F-35A in 1/72 from new toolings at the Nuremberg Toy Fair for this year.
CyberHobby/Dragon had announced kits of the F-35 some time (couple of years?) ago, but they haven't surfaced yet.

Really wish Kitty Hawk would scale-down the Mirage F.1 to 1/72. Especially when they get round to doing the single-seater.  :-*

I always feel it has a very naval look about it, as if it belongs on a CVL flight deck as a Skyhawk replacement.

ANy one know if they're going to do the Indian version with the nose-mounted radar?  That has serious whif potential.
