WW2 stats for those of us with wishlists and product ideas

Post by RedLeif »

As I usually read and sometimes contribute to the various "Wishlist" posts now and then, I asked myself ' I wonder just how many MicroArmour (1/285th scale) WW2 model products GHQ plans to do each year?" They release a lot of stuff each year but I what percentage of the total do the models of my period of interest make up? So I did some number crunching this morning using only the lists published here in the forums and my %'s only consider the Military catalog items, or stuff from the "micro" lines, not HO or N scale train products.

I provide this merely as something to consider as one ponders what one would like to buy from our beloved supplier of cool little models.

2011-2012 1/285 scale WWII models:
out of 45 total new military line sculpts there are or are planned to be

11 total products or about 24% of total
7 WW2 land warfare units or about 15% of total
4 WW2 aircraft or just shy of 9% of total

2010 - 2011 1/285 scale WWII models:
Out of 50 planned new military products
16 total or 32%
14 WW2 land warfare - 28% 4 of which were new sculpts of existing catalog items (redo's)
2 WW2 aircraft - 4%

2009-2010 1/285th scale WWII models:
Out of 49 total new military products:
8 total ~ 16%
7 land warfare ~ 14%
1 aircraft ~ 2%

enjoy
