As we’ve come from this prolific model maker, Hobby Master trotted out some of the warbirds we can expect to see this coming December. Not surprisingly, a pair of Vought F-8 Crusaders were included in the mix, which came about as a result of their acquisition of several molds from the now defunct Century Wings. Also in the bag were several longtime favorites, which included two models paying tribute to the El Dorado Canyon mission undertaken two decades ago.
So, without further ado, here now the list of models we plan to bring in towards the end of 2026:
