kalashnikov-47 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hi.... Are the newer issues of the Revell 1/32 Tornado a recent tooling or is it still the same kit first issued in the early 1980's? I'd like to build an RAF GR.1 from the first Gulf war. Mucho thanks.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130476598638 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Revell did re-tool the Tornado, but I'm pretty sure the one on ebay is the old tool, you want either this boxing http://www.fortunecity.com/meltingpot/portland/971/Inbox/t-v/tornado_32-i.htm which is a European release or this US release http://www.internetmodeler.com/2000/september/first-looks/rev_gr1.htm these are the only two which contain the correct parts for an RAF plane.

LSP_Ray Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Actually, the one on eBay is the new tool, although not the latest version released. The old tool Tornados were in smaller, more rectangular boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 The old tool Tornado kits also had a photo of a real aircraft on the boxtop, while the new tool kits like this one have a painting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phartycr0c Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Take a quick look hereIt gives a short run down of all the 1/32 "new tool" boxings up until the recent re release. Anything earlier than these are the older, slightly more inaccurate releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomdriver Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Fear not, I gather it is on the reissue list for this year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
