    Revell 1/32 Tornado - how do you rate it?

    As the title suggests, what is the general consensus on the Revell 1/32 RAF Tonka? Is it any good and does it build into a decent model? I've been looking the RAF one for a while now.

    A good kit goes together well and i like the design of the swing wings as the pylons move with the wings i do rate this kit highly as i am doing the other verson and the color scheme is a nigthmare that only and airbrush can do.

      Thanks Peter. What are the other colour schemes in the RAF version with the 31 sqn special markings? Are they all grey/green or is there desert and plain grey options?

      Hannants are doing them 1/2 price at the moment.
