Hi all

Has anyone heard anything new about new Spitfire Mk.I from Airfix. They've presented suchj a nice animation a nothing else. And there isn't much time left to the BoB Day. And what about Cyber Hobby's announcement about Spitfire Mk.I and Hurricane Mk.I. Anything new?

According to the Wonderland Models website, the Airfix kit will be out on 20th September:

Make of that what you will. They were pretty close with the 1/48th Bf109E, the Trafalgar-Class sub and the "James May" 1/72 Spitfire, but they were expecting the Bf110 a couple of weeks ago.

And bearing in mind the announced price for the Meteor - an eye watering £27! - I doubt you'd get any change from £20 for the Spitfire. Consider also that the Tamiya one is thought to be overpriced. The Airfix one will be about £6 and be readily available in quantity.

I'll believe that when I see it. I was going off the price of the PR.XIX which is between £5-6.

And bear in mind that VAT increase in the new year - buy them now whilst they're cheaper!

the PR XIX is series 2 so is a quid more expensive
