Has anyone got or built one of the above as I'm thinking of getting one and just want to know if it's worth it?

Thanks in advance

David

David it's a rebox of the Italieri kit , it's not a bad kit but it does have its problems like filling wing routes

If that's the same Italeri I built, then yes, I does build into a nice model.

A lot will depend on your patience; Airfix are due to produce one this year.

David Im building the Airfix Hurricane & found that a nice kit....

Did need some filler at the wing roots, but I think most kits need filler somewhere on them. It did need some extra bracing on the landing legs to stop the wobble lol ..other than that all went well..
