Farish renewed LNER V2. It could be nice source for LNER A2 Thompson.
Well, Possibility for King(with King George V's bell) and Rebuilt Merchant navy?
Heard that renewed Unrebuilt MN was not so successful

Anything is possible, it all depends on if the manufacturer thinks they will sell.

The air smoother Merchant Navy will at least provide a chassis block for a rebuilt version.

A King, well Bachmann did say in the Autumn announcement brochure locos for the Hawksworth coaches would follow, did they mean the Class 41 or are they referring to another run of Castles?

Until someone announces one anything is just rumour and gossip really

It's odd that there's still no King Arthur and Lord Nelson.

I'm pretty sure an RTR King Arthur will come along soon as I'm getting close to finishing my two from @RBTKraisee, and my record on building kits that are immediately replaced by RTR versions is good or bad depending on which way you look at it!

Sadly that isn't the case, nor is it for the Dapol BoB/West Country, both would require a newly tooled chassis as the ones for both original "air-smoothed" models takes advantage of the extra volume in their respective bodies. Only wheels, underframe detail bogies and of course tenders would be reusable.

Your record is as good as mine, Dave!
