Hirst89 8 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Hi, Just wondering if anyone knows what this kit includes? Thinking about ordering one. Cheers, Michael Link to post Share on other sites
chadders 73 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 It's just the old Airfix MCRA Tornado, with a sprue for the GR4 bits and new decals. Nothing to write home about, I only got one because I collect the A73*** series kits Link to post Share on other sites

Tomjw 814 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 It's just the old Airfix MCRA Tornado, with a sprue for the GR4 bits and new decals. Nothing to write home about, I only got one because I collect the A73*** series kits Having just bought the original MRCA kit for the under a tenner group build, it is somewhat dissapointing that Airfix have done this. This will mean shape issues galor. Link to post Share on other sites

goggsy 1,096 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Not sure if it's the same ancient 1/48 kit that was boxed along with their old upkeep lanc, but if it is then prepare yourself for a lot of work. The boxing I had was depicted as having dropped slats and flaps on the box, but the kit doesn't have this. Trade descriptions anyone? Link to post Share on other sites

AirfixAndy 303 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Sorry Airfix....kit is only worth the GR4 upgrade bits ,weapons set and decals.....all of which would look far better on the Revell GR1 kit. Andy 1 Link to post Share on other sites
