geedubelyer Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Oh gawd........I've been an' gone an' drooled all over me keyboard....... Thanks for sharing your piccies Edgar. It looks like Airfix/Hornby have a model to be proud of again. These pics show their Mossie to be very impressive. I'm not likely to actually build one, (not my scale) but never say never.......

Edgar Posted October 24, 2009 Author Share Posted October 24, 2009 Can't think why; didn't see them, but, allegedly, there are three sets of wheels/tyres in the kit. Edgar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornishRebel Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Oh, my sweet lord....there's a party in my underpants! I gotta get me one of these...maybe two! Rover 216 Cabriolet for sale, taxed and MOT'd....will swap for a pair of 1/24 Mossies! Cheers for the piccies . Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor K2 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Surely a special thanks must go to Trevor Snowdon, as he has been championing this cause for quite a long time (20 or so years). Without his persistance I doubt Airfix/Hornby would have "cut the metal". I for one have ordered mine and am currently working over time to justify a couple more. Victor K2 P.S. I too would like to see a Hawk T Mk 1 in 1/24,a Victor Mk2 in 1/48 same for Valiant oh go on then, Vulcan as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in Aotearoa Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Looks flippin awesome, thanks for posting the pics. I wonder if there are any plans to release the bomber version as well? From the parts breakdown I'd say it's perfectly feasible - and I think they'd be onto a winner Mike A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I am concerned as to how many they might release... One is ok to justify to myself, but 2 or 3... Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgar Posted October 26, 2009 Author Share Posted October 26, 2009 We've already been informed that a B.IV version will follow, and, with the way the engine nacelles are formed, long engine versions are a distinct possibility. Edgar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Edgar, You are not helping my resolve. I am a 1/72 and sometimes 1/48 person. What do I want with a 1/24 Mosquito, never mind 3 of them..? Yes, I have pre-ordered one at my LMS... Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
