Wasp Helicopter 1/96 or 1/72

Am I right in thinking that Deans were about to offer a Wasp to compliment the Zulu build ?

Not that I'm aware of, which is why I made one for my Zulu, though I did make the Scout instead of the Wasp as the under carriage was easier, not historically correct or professional but I'm happy with it.

Many thanks Radio Joe. Now I know old age has just caught me up.  I was sure I had read it somewhere that Deans were producing one.

I built my 1/96 wasp from the resin kit supplied by Sirmar.
my 1/76 scale version was made using an airfix scout kit, which I
converted into a wasp. Sirmar still stock the 1/96 wasp if you still need one.

Hi Modellers
 A wasp kit designed to be lightweight for the kits is in development at present, we had to buy a real one to get the best details
no release date yet, but its looking good
