LSP_Kevin Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 Wow, that came out of the blue! Can we confirm anywhere that they're reboxes of the Revell kits? Kev LSP_K2, Jan_G and Trak-Tor 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan_G Posted October 19 Author Share Posted October 19 (edited) based on the parts layout it seems they have used Revell IIA kit Kev so not sure about IA and VA versions here are some better pics and instructions as well https://sk-sk.facebook.com/pg/jadarhobby/posts/?ref=page_internal Edited October 19 by Jan_G Kagemusha, coogrfan, Trak-Tor and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 Yep, the sprue layout is the same, looks to have additional resin parts where required. Jan_G and LSP_K2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramedic Posted October 20 Share Posted October 20 Does it let you make a proper Ia and Va then? Looking at the instructions I see the 50 and 51 step and seem to remember that the oil cooler (?) intake had a different shape so that seems genuine with a resin part. I built Douglas Baders Dog´s Body "DB" in 1/48 a few years ago and put ona Rotol spinner but I guess both spinners can have been used on Vas? Maybe I should find a feview.. Seems like a fun kit though, thanks for sharing. I had no clue about it and haven´t picked up the Revell one yet.. MARU5137 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkhorn Posted October 20 Share Posted October 20 Most of relevant images has already been shared above, here are the additional two pages from the instructions with the parts layout and an illustration of some tweaks that have to be applied to the Revell engine cowling.

LSP_Kevin Posted October 20 Share Posted October 20 Engraving that external battery connector access door will be no easy task. Do they provide a template for it? Kev nmayhew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkhorn Posted October 21 Share Posted October 21 The drawing of the access door shape in the correct size for 1/32 scale is placed above the engraving symbol. LSP_K2 and MARU5137 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefly7 Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 I think these will be my Spit family tree. I have a Tamiya and 1 of those is enough. But I want the whole line and these look great. Thanks Jan for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramedic Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 Yeah this boxing looks really nice. Mk,.I, II and V?? (as) - yes please! BoB or Douglas Bader in 1941?? MARU5137 and alanash1963 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Well, take care; more resin parts would be required to depict correctly all those marks. Obviously most people will not care and be happy to get Spitfires that look globally ok. Personally I will wait for Kotare ones. monthebiff, Jan_G, MikeC and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
