Very highly recommended. This kits is loads of fun with all sorts of possibilities!!
Jeroen I had the chance to compare the two kits side by side and similarities are remarkable!!!
The wings and fuselage are exactly the same right down to the rivets.
The Revell comes with an engine and tub cockpit where the Fly has no engine and a build up tubular cockpit!
Interesting views on metal paints.!
I use and really like Vallejo's new line of Metalizer Paints. They are acrylic, hard as nails, can be masked with no lift off, are not hazardous to your health and smell good too, lol!! They have a complete line of colors which I use for all things metallic!
Thanks for the kind comments.
Not sure when Revell halted production of the lit however this one was stamped 1972 and was boxed as a Smithsonian Classic!
It really is a great kit with loots of possibilities. It's a shame that Revell doesn't re-release it.
It is however almost identical to the fly mold with the exception that the Revell has an engine!
I'd highly recommend that if you can find one on eBay that you buy it and enjoy the build!
Thanks Tom.
I almost bought the Fly kit but then saw this on eBay! The price was greatly attractive over the Fly kit.
The Revell kit has an engine and identical riveting detail of the Fly kit!
My Revell 1/32 Vintage Hawker Hurricane Mk.IIC has joined my Basement Air Force. Run don't walk to eBay and buy this kit!!! Absolutely an enjoyable build!!
