Be interesting to see how good the wheel bay doors and airbrake fit in the closed position. You could even used the panel to rear of the bomb as your point for the rod/stand. Now don't give me more ideas. I'm allready considering borrowing some polycaps from my Tamiya F-16 to make the tanks removable and then swap for pylons as i feel it.

I'm toying with the idea of attaching the bomb bay cover with magnets so can be removed to view the interior. Shaun

Be interesting to find out

New Airfix advert on the airfix website listing 500 collector's coins available for the first Buccanner S2.B orders.

Thanks, thats a great photo to show the doors and it makes sence to create an air dam under the fuselage. Will have a search around the builds on here for painting ideas. BTW, the Tamiya kit looks amazing on sprues in the box.

A question on simular thread. The kit instructions state the weapon bay doors part open when in vertical landing mode, is this the rule as i'm sure some photo's show them closed in the hover. What are the best "from the bottle" model paints to paint an F-35 to avoid all the mixing that the instructions ask you to do. Shaun

Wonder if any coins or special deals with this release?

The box art shows the more detailed late fox head artwork on the intake, which would be correct for a late service aircraft in 1993. This later design arrived around the time of gray Buccaneers.

Anyone else see the 809Sqn marked F-35B in the stand up event this week. Wonder if the large Phoenix markings will make it airborne for photo's?

Have there been any thoughts of a set of standard Squadron markings (2,9,12,13,15,31,41)for the Tornado GR4 in 1/32nd. The Italeri kit has not seen much aftermarket interest.

There a nice review/preview from Tamiya on Youtube.

Are all the bits for the RAF mk3 in the box allready?

1/48 Spey Phantom done to current standards would be great.

I was thinking along those lines, The 208 Sqn markings have been pretty much consistent through out thier Buccaneer period. Maybe try the magnetic trick and see if interchangeable stores are possable.

A lot of schemes can be obtained from sheets allready out there. In my stash i have most squadrons covered with decals in stock. But still looking for the large Black outlined in white tail codes that were used on the Losiemouth wing for a short while.
