Eduard will be releasing their new tool 1/72 scale Fokker D.VII this month with five marking options
”May sees the premiere of the 1:72nd scale Fokker D.VII. The little Fokker is derived in design from the 48th scale version with necessary changes that have brought about not only a change in scale, but also in the timetable for its release. The 48th scale version is more than ten years old now, and the technology at our disposal and our design philosophy have both come a long way in that time. The first in the line is the Fokker D.VII (OAW), and we have chosen to offer aircraft in a five-colour lozenge scheme, and these have been based on the advice of those in the know about these. I guess there may be others that are also ‘in the know’ who may have opposite views, but you can only do so much. Subsequent versions of the Fokker to follow will be the Fokker D.VII (MAG) in October, which was a version that was used in the twenties by firstly Hungary and later the Romani- an Air Force, and also one made its way to the Czechoslovak Air Force. The Roy- al Class boxing will come out in Decem- ber, and it will contain all the main versions of the type, will include a massive decal sheet(s) and also will include both four and five colour lozenge options. In terms of versions, the Fokker D.VII is not a simple aircraft. Each of the main producers had their own sub variants that were produced and this explains the reason for the inclusion of two fuselages for each kit.
Next year, we will be releasing the Fokker D.VII (Fokker) and the Fokker D.VII (Albatros). I expect it to not end there, and I think there will be other sub variants coming out through 2021.”
