A Fw-190.

 

No, that's not right.

 

I meant a Fw-189. That's an interesting looking plane that is just crying out for a 1/32 kit.

 

Revell, are you reading this?!

Looking at the Airfix new releases, the release of the 1/24th Typhoon is very good news.  Airfix have re-tooled a number of their smaller scale kits which has been good for them in the sales department.  I find it curious that they have never seemed keen to re-tool some of their 1/24th scale classics.  How great would a re- tool of the Spit MkI and Bf 109E be, with detailed gun bays, wheel wells and re-worked cockpits?  Not to mention some nice new decal sheets offering some interesting markings.  One would think this would be a relatively cheap way to seriously boost their claim to be "Kings" of the 1/24th scale kit!?

Airfix has already determined that tooling costs to upgrade the existing (old), 1:24 kits, would be prohibitively expensive, so have no plans to do it.
