Whilst shopping at ALDI last week we were surprised to see Air Fix Spitfire's & Hurricane's, ME 109 and Fw 190's in their "when its gone" baskets . I guess Christmas is coming for some of you.
The soldier set looks like an upgrade of ones I had as a lad. The one next to the Radio op had a flamethrower perhaps they modified the dies turning the tank on his back to a pack. I think my kids had the same set. If the wife digs the garden like she keeps threatening to do this winter, I might find them. Re Air Fix we made a quick model Quad and Tractor for a neighbours 90th Birthday a few weeks ago to go with his card (a Photo of a WW2 Quad) . He did National Service in 19th Field Regt.
If you look closely, you can see there is a design opening in the front of the wings, so it's just replicating the original. All the best Andreas
