From Dragon Space the Apollo 18 and Soyuz 19, ASTP "Apollo-Soyuz Test Project"

The fully finished model is highly detailed, and it shows the two spacecraft docked as they orbit the Earth. In fact, the miniature is made even more special by the fact that this is the first Soyuz craft in Dragon's range. Its appearance, as well as that of new-tooled Apollo 18, is accurately depicted.
Big news from Hobby Master as always. Highlights:

F-101B Voodoo 1/72 Die Cast Model: 2nd FITS, Air Defense Weapons Center, Tyndall AFB, 1978. The first F-101 model ever produced, this is the last release in the Century Series. It’s a “must-have” model as collectors will want to complete the series.
F-4N Phantom II 1/72 Die Cast Model: VF-84, "Jolly Rogers," CVW-19 CAG Bird, USS Roosevelt. The ever-popular Jolly Rogers F-4 Phantom is back! This one replicates the aircraft flown by the 19th carrier air wing’s commanding officer from the USS Roosevelt.
American Airlines DC-6B "Flagship Roanoke," 1950s ~N90744 (1:200). American Airlines placed an order for 50 new Douglas DC-6's. The first aircraft was delivered on November 24, 1947 as N90774 c/n 43049/103 with the name "Flagship Nevada'. A few years later the aircraft was renamed "Flagship Roanoke" with the old name going to a DC-7.
Plus a new SR-71 from Century Wings and a new F-4 from X-Plus
