Plastic kit. It was already explained on our blog, that plastic model of the PZL P.7a 1/72 scale is delayed. It’s release was planned on Christmas but tooling is much more demanding (see there). Kit will be released as soon as tooling finished. Hopefully more information will be available at the end of January.

Next Plastic Kits from Arma Hobby

Probably most awaited information is list of new plastic kits planned for 2017. They are our priority projects for obvious reason.  We are planning to release two next plastic kits in second part of this year. One medium size single engine aircraft and a small one are planned. Both of them in 1/72 scale. Within next one-two years we  hope to release a four different airplanes yearly. Quite ambitious plan! Anyway it happened that from manufacturing small resin bombs we were able to climb to plastic kit manufacturing level in three years. So we believe we would be able to reach  that target.

New kits will be announced in 2-3 months before release. We are not planning to play with number of future release announcement to stir the market. To often they are delayed or postponed then. Keeping promises is our goal.

We are very grateful receiving feedback from modelers including next kit suggestions. Most of popular Polish or US Navy subjects are known to us very well and… most probably they are on our to do list. Please accept we will neither promise nor comment any model kit suggestions.
