1/32 Revell Panavia Tornado G.R.Mk1 no. 4760...is it any good?

[GazzaS]

Guys,

     I don't do a lot of 1/32 jets.  Mainly because the only ones that interest me are the 100-series (most represented sadly by Trumpeter)(already built the Italeri F-104) , MiG 15 (seen all the horror stories...Trumpeter again!) and one other that I won't mention until a later date.  A Panavia Tornado...  one is made by Revell has come up in Australia on EBay.  So...  is it any good, or another kit calling for a ton of AM and filler?

There's a little time left on the auction.  So, if you know, lemme know.

 

Thanks for your thoughts!

If I am not mistaken that is the OLD revell mold from way back when (mid 1980's). I wouldn't touch it unless you want a basic slate for a super scratch build/P/E resin project. The new revell mold is much better as is the new Italeri one but that is a GR4. HTH

Thank you for the advice!  I'll give it a miss.
