    An electric motor..? O_o

    Well, seems Airfix has done a good job.

    A 1/24 plane is always a temptation, and so much at this detail level.. they has prepared a book as well...and I suppose some more extras will coming soon...

    Is a good business

      I have seen the electric motor sold on its own as an accessory for Airfix 1/24th scale aircraft

          A 1/32 Lancaster is on the books from HK models..

          Japanese gentlemen with ruler and note pad have been sighted crawling all over a Mossy. No further news though. Revell have re-issued there mossy in 1/32...

              Its a re-box. I too have heard things...The worst is that it is a bit slab sided... :-/ But can be made into a fair build.

                  Indeed the Lanc is due to be released later this year. I will be very sorely tempted as I was with the B17 but practicalities stand in the way - or do they?

                  As for the Mossy and the aforesaid Japanese gents - I read elsewhere that they were from Tamiya who will release a 32 scale Mossie in due course..... Now that really will be totally irresistable whatever the price damage.

                    YESSSS! Tamiya's 1:72 mossies are little masterpieces in themselves. A 1:32 mossie by Tamiya...... That will be amazing.

                        I will be looking out for this one , I've built the 1/48 tamiya mossy and although mine had some fit issues that was down to storage but it was a good kit and a 1/32 mossy is just the ticket
