zipper Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hi All, With only a few more weeks left of this year and with all the hype now calmed down with the Airfix Lightning finally being released (4 months later then planned) I was just wondering what the must have kits of 2012 will be as not really heard much on the grape vine in any scale really. Just wondered what your thoughts are and what you have heard. Ashley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipper Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 Just seen the "brute" on the front of models for sale webpage for £99 is sounds like quite a lot for you cash. Really good to see such variety popping up and intresting to see a 32nd Cat coming out too, not my thing as I love my jets but would be intresting to see it just for the engineering side of things.
