Nice selection of new tooling in the aircraft section this year but nothing that grabs me by the throat!

(Will the Spitfire 22 be Airfix tooling or a re-box of the Xtrakit?)

However, I'm mightily pleased to see the 1/12 Bentley back!

I used to have one until the Opposition and I kid you not, decided that it wasn't worth keeping and threw it out!

It still rankles 26 years later...

It's my understanding that the Spitfire is Airfix tooling and not a re-box from another manufacturer. If it's using the same data as the 1/48 kit there should be much rejoicing.

I see from the 2012 Airfix catalogue that the new tool 1/72 Me 109E-4 comes with markings for Franz von Werra! Must have!

Well would really like to see some of the ships introduced to 1/350 scale
Greta though they are in there oldie scale.

Having built one in 1/350 scale maybe the oldie Aircraftcarriers like the one's that carriered the oldie torpedo aircraft.

HMS ARKROYAL springs to mind

I had a look at the Spitfire 22 at Yeovilton today, looks very impressive. Those trailing edges must be some of the finest I've ever seen.

Cheers,
Bill.

Yes, they just keep getting better. My eyes are not too good anymore and the lighting in Yeovilton is awfulf, but I got the impression that those "trademark" panel lines are getting finer.
