1/48 Hispano Aviación HA-1112 Buchon

[At Sea]

Does anyone make one of these in 1/48, or a conversion kit?

 

Thinking of making a Spitfire IX and a Buchon in 1/48 for my cabinet as a tribute to the film aircraft.

 

Thanks.

yes, full kit, by Hobbycraft , then reissued by Academy.

Don't think it's been available for a while,  but it's not rare.

Note, Hobbycraft did a specific film boxing

this is the last Academy boxing.

says 2004

 

I'd suggest the easiest way to find on of these is to ask here in the wanted section,  as the lockdown has made getting older kits a more expensive prospect via ebay,  or used kit dealers.

Oohh Brilliant.  Thanks!

I just had a look on Ebay (search for 'HA-1112') , and there are 1/72, 1/48. and 1/32 (resin conversion) kits and sets listed.

That is for initial Hispano engined variant,  not the Merlin engined Ha-1112 as used in the BoB film.

This is the one I believe you need.

Mine came with decals for the film version.

I’m rather late to the thread but SBS is releasing a 1/48 conversion set for HA.1112-M1L: https://sbsmodel.com/model/SBS-48074/hispano-ha-1112-m.1l-buchon--movie-star--preorder!
