    So no one at Airfix thought to check first before sending it out ? A bit disappointing. But at least they did send you three kits, maybe the others were OK !
    On a lighter note, their 1:72 Eindecker is brilliant.

      Does no one at Hornby try and build these kits first before putting them on sale? No kit is perfect but, this one seems to be particularly bad, you must have used half a tube of filler doing this kit. In contrast I've built 10 kits and I'm not even a quarter of the way through my tube of filler.

        I don't suppose you have a spare decal sheet that you don't need? I removed the masking around the cockpit windows on mine today and the yellow dotted line decal came away with the tape.
        On the bench: Airfix 1/48 Sea King HC4, Revell 1/24 Trabant.
        Coming soon: Airfix 1/72 Phantom FGR2.
        Just finished: Airfix 1/48 Stuka & Airfix 1/72 Sea King HC4.
