28ZComeback Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Hi - does anyone make an injection Swift in 1/48? I seem to recall a resin kit and a vac. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scimitar F1 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 In a word No. Likewise the mighty Scimitar. The Falcon Vac is apparently good however. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WV908 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I have the Falcon vac (raised panel lines sadly) that I purchased from Mike last year. There was also the Scratchaeronautics resin kit, but that company looks to have disappeared. I didn't fancy paying £71 for a small 1/48 jet so went the route of finding the Falcon vac instead. Again there are similar options for the Scimitar - vac in the form of Dynavector (I'll take mine to the grave with me haha) and two other vacs that are really not worth the effort. Scratchaeronautics also did this in resin but I recall it being around £85 Cheers, WV908 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antti_K Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Let's hope that Airfix do something about it. They have already released 1/48 scale Gloster Javelin, Hawker Hunter, Meteor F.8 and FR.9. It would be very nice to have Scimitar, Swift and British Phantom next. Please, Mr. Airfix... Cheers, Antti 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welkin Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Scimitar and Swift - good 😃 Trumpeter? - not so sure 🤔 But then, I did succumb to their Spiteful and Seafang 🥴 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Antti Plus they released it relatively recently in 1/72, so presumably they've got the research material somewhere. Every year I hope (in vain?) to see it on their release schedule. Likewise the Jet Provost... Jon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
