Bri48 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) Hi all, Its the old frog kit, not the best but it was cheap as chips a while ago. Built straight from the box it builds up into a nice replica of this beautiful aircraft. Brian Edited April 26, 2012 by Bri48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev67 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Very nice, one aircraft I would like to do in 1/72, if I can ever find the vacform kit at a sensible price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Nice. I used to have the original Frog in its good condition box, tissue wrapped inside and the tube of glue. Sold it a few years ago....£95.00!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
