what 1:32 mossie conversions are available

[brewerjerry]

Hi

   When the airfix 1:24 mossie came out there i think were quite a few conversion kits released. 

 

   I dont see any 1:32 ones when I search, 

 

  i.e. TR.33, XV, XVIII , PR , bull/ thimble noses , four blade props etc . 

 

   or am i just not searching the right sites

     cheers

Not overly helpful but Paragon did a number of these and some are still found from time to time on e-bay etc.  There are a set of flaps and wing tanks on e-bay at the moment.

The owner Neil went on to other things.  he did a fighter conversion set with cockpit etc, two stage merlin conversion and a bulged bomb bay and wing tanks

 

IIRC Grey matter figures do a fighter nose and at least 2 other companies also do merlin 2 stage conversions with varying degrees of success.  I recall a thread on the comparisons on here quite recently.

Hi

    Thanks for the replies,

  I had seen these, but was looking for some deeper conversions

     as I have the tamiya and hk kits, but wanted to build them 'not out of the box'   

 

  one thought is the tamiya as DD723 the mossie with lanc engines 

 

    cheers J
