Airfix New Deal.

Since Hornby took over Airfix the company has released a steady stream of new kits, many of theme replacing old outdated kits. I have built quite a few of the new kits and I think most of them are great. Later this year Airfix will be releasing new 1/72 scale kits for P-40B Tomahawk, A6M Zero, Swordfish Mk1 and a Folland Gnat. Already in stores are a Vickers Valiant and a early Spitfire Mk I. In 1/48 scale there is an Bf-109E and a Seafire Mk F. XVII on the shelf’s.

Here is a picture of my Airfix collection.
