I have a short list of kits that I would probably snap up if they were to be published by one of my favorite publishers or designers: Devastator, Corsair, Avenger, Swordfish, Dr.I, S.E. 5a, SPAD XIII, Albatros D.III/V. Most of these do exist in kit form, but they are either old kits with poor graphics, the work of designers I don't trust much, or electronic downloads (I preferred the offset-printed kits). Kartonowa Kolekcja just released a new kit, but it's a Fokker D.VII in Polish markings that is almost entirely covered in lozenge camouflage. In the first place, I just built the original kit a few months ago, and secondly, instead of one of the many colorful D.VIIs that could have been published, we got lozenge. 😑 No, thanks. But -- we can only pick from what the publishers offer!

Seems to be the trend no matter which medium you choose. Some kits seem to simply fall together, others you can spend hours trying to figuratively hammer into shape only to start eyeing a real hammer in an overly friendly way

Another superb build, Chris. May I add the Dauntless to your list? I think some were in use until the Battle of the Philippine Sea, also known as the Great Marianas Turkey Shoot.
