Spitfire Mk.II-Merlin XII Engine - Help?

Recommended Posts

Hi Gents,

i'm going to start my Revell Spitfire Mk.II (1:32) build and would like to add the engine i wonder if there is a company which makes a decent Merlin XII engine in 1:32?

All i could find is the Engine & Things offer, someone knows of what quality their engines are?

Are there any other options, maybe 1:32 kits with a Merlin XII engine which could be used for my project?

Any idea is welcome!

 

Cheers

Hans

I say buyer beware with Engine & Things.  Of the four 72nd scale engines  I ordered one time, two were excellent, one was useless, and the other was usable only with a lot of correcting and cleaning up.

 

The original owner passed away a few years ago, and a family member is looking over the business.  The bad quality I received is likely the result of old and plugged up molds.

 

regards,

Jack

Thanks for that feedback Jack matches with my impression when i saw examples from Engine & Things on different sites, doesn't look very convincing to say it moderate....
