Hi Disco and welcome to the best and friendliest modelling forum on the net. Ooo, what a question. It is loaded with buts, like but what is your taste, period, war or civil. However, if I was wanting a kit that would give me something different, something spectacular, something of quality and something that fits together really well, my choice would be
Tamiya - 1/48th North American RAF Mustang III
Part No: 61047
Scale: 1/48th
The Rolls-Royce Merlin engine was powering the best warplanes in England early in the war. To develop a new engine for the fledgling P-51 would take much time and the allies did not have it. In 1940, the Packard Motor Company of the U.S. began license production of the Merlin V-1650-1 engine in Detroit. Both the U.S. and England started modifications almost simultaneously. 10 airframes were altered and became the start of the most successful fighter series of the war.
Price: £15.99 from Modelzone.
Superb looking kit. I started back with my, still unfinished RAF Mustang from ICM, a bit cheaper but the
Tamiya has the edge and worth the extra few quid.
