Rabbit Leader Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Now that is tempting... would look good parked against a 1/72 AEW Gannet, almost like a beached whale scene! Cheers.. Dave 2
Meatbox8 Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Hallalujah! Been after one of these for years. Hope it goes together better then their Spit XIV.
stevehnz Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 Woo Hoo, I can build my Hasegawa Spad OOB now, no need to dig out the old Airfix mag Alan W Hall conversion now, no balsa & talcum powder will be needed. Steve. 2
hsr Posted April 2, 2019 Posted April 2, 2019 Yeah, I can stop searching for the RVHP conversion now 2
