Title: I am SO getting this kit!

Review of the new Tamiya 1:32 Mossie (what else...)

First kit I built in 35 years was the 1:48 Mossie FB from Tamiya, this one looks even better, though I sure as heck am not going to build the fiddly bits of the engine interior and the (horror!) landing gear. Guess I'll have to find a stand and wait for some aftermarket prop blurs.

Also good to see some Polish markings provided - been a big gap IMHO. The Poles had two squadrons of Mossies, one FB and one NF, flew with distinction to the end of the war.

Yay.

Just happened to see this on Hyperscale today.

You might have two kits to get :)

Lovely kit. With retirement looming Im starting to want to get back into modeling. I have a friend who just did an awesome diorama of a German town recently over ran but before I took on something like that I'd like to do some aircrafts first.
