Artful69 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I have the kit - I think? (Bf.109E ??) ... but I'll need a few days to drag it out of the stash and scan the sheet for you ... If you get them before the weekend please post here otherwise I'll try to scan ASAP Rog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeC Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 So to try and answer it, I just searched on "Bf109E", narrowed it down to "full kits"/"Matchbox"/"1/32", and it came up with three seemingly identical entries. The link to the instructions is on the third. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/matchbox-pk-502-messerschmitt-bf-109e-3--543333 MikeMaben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 This is a typical issue on Scalemates. So check all the pages related to the various releases of a kit and often have also a look at the pages in different languages as the contents may be very variable with regard to the links to reviews, availability of scanned instructions, etc. etc. MikeMaben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many Scalemates pages have the instructions, yet, but it is an ok starting place for older/esoteric kits. If that doesn't work, drop the 'scalemates' search term to broaden the search results. Of course, most mainstream kit instructions can still be sourced from https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/ HTH, D thierry laurent, MikeMaben and Rick Griewski 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
