We had thought that Luft-X was all but dead seeing as how nothing new has been announced from this resin model maker for the better part of five years. That said, it appears as if the creator of exotic German wunderwaffe aircraft is looking to make a comeback in 2023 with the release of not one but two versions of their highly sought after Ho 229 fighter-bomber. LUFT004 was released some time back and quickly sold out almost as soon as it made its maiden flight onto retailer’s shelves. A second version, dubbed LUFT004A, is based upon the aircraft currently on display at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, an annex of the National Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C. Both are scheduled to touch down in April and will likely get snapped up as quickly as they did on the first go round.

There’s a good chance that LUFT-X may resurrect several of their other previous releases as we amble further down the road in 2023, and hopefully add some new subjects once they re-establish their identity in the marketplace and gain traction among military aircraft collectors.

And, in a related announcement, Wings of Glory is re-releasing several of their resin-crafted WWI-themed military aircraft, once again demonstrating that they are looking to play a major role in the aviation sector. Look for their LZ 41 Zeppelin, Manfred von Richthofen’s Fokker Dr.I Triplane fighter, and Eddie Rickenbacker’s Spad XIII biplane fighter to soar over Flanders trenches this coming April.
