INCOMING: AIRFIX 1:24 SCALE HAWKER TYPHOON


Brilliant news from Airfix at the IPMS Scale ModelWorld show is the soon to be released 1:24 scale Hawker Typhoon.



The newcomer looks to be well up to the standard set by other recent releases to this mega-scale, including its stablemate, the de Havilland Mosquito.


Component trees on display showed plenty of detail, and a highly convincing pilot figure. Transparent parts look clear and the canopy near-scale in thickness.


We can see this being a kit of the year, and expect an impatient nail-biting wait until we get our hands on one.
