Wow! I've seen the miniatures of the various planes and almost bought them
just on coolness factor. If there's a video game coming out I'll have to get
it (well, depending on gameplay. I'm kinda fussy).
Still, seeing some of these alternate-WWII planes in Lego would be really neat.
Maybe I'll have to give some of thema go as well...
There was a comic book a while back (2-3 years) called "Luftwaffe 1948" that
was a kind of alternate-history story where the Luftwaffe had planes so
advanced that WWII dragged on past it's normal timeframe. You might want to
seek out some of those books, too, if this kind of plane design really excites
you.
