AirfixA05330 WWII RAF Bomber Re-Supply Set, 1:72 Scale, Green,grey

Airfix were one of the premier model companies of the 1960's; I remember looking at all their releases as a wide eyed young model enthusiast in the late 1960's and working my way through their kits of famous WW2 bombers.The company is enjoying a revival, it seems, with their recent releases; especially the model kits of the famed Avro Lancaster. The Lancaster kits can be supplemented with this additional kit of various RAF equipment and vehicles that assisted in getting the aircraft ready for their next mission.This kit contains the following vehicles and equipment:1 x Standard Light Utility Vehicle1 x Bedford Truck-the truck can be configured either as a fuel tanker, or a pick up bed vehicle1 x Maintenance tower-this can be attached to the Bedford as a 'towed' item, or positioned on its legs1 x David Brown Tractor/Tug1 x Type F Bomb Trolley-for transporting the 8000 lb bomb2 x Type C Bomb Trollies-for transporting the 1000 and 500 lb Medium Capacity (MC) Bombs1 x 500 cc Motor Cycle1 x Bicycle1 x 450 gallon Trailer bowserAlso included are a number of 500 and 1000 lb MC bombs, an 8000 lb bomb, jerry cans, wheel chocks a ladder and a tool box.The detail on the parts is very well done, with minimum 'flash' to clean off; additional detail in engines, transmissions and tyre tread is evident, plus the fuel tanker/bowsers can be displayed with their access doors open, or closed.Detailed painting guides are included for the kit, and a decal sheet with the correct markings for vehicles and colour markings for the bombs completes a very well presented kit. Anyone considering adding something to their Airfix RAF Bombers should look into this kit. Amazon were able to get this kit to me quickly with no fuss at all.It is great to see Airfix kits coming back into the market with greater detail and accuracy. Well done, Airfix!

This is a standard RAF and Commonwealth air base resupply set for RAF aircraft.

Ok if you get this kit be ready to build. There are a lot of little parts and if you think it's cool and detailed your right. Enjoy

If you're planning a bomber diorama then this is the kit that you need. In fact you could easily use two of them as it only includes one maintenance stand and most photos show two per engine.Moulding quality is great and a big improvement over the previous airfield kits. This is loads cheaper than the alternative photo-etched, white metal or resin kits and will look just as good.All we need now is a better selection of figures doing typical maintenance tasks.

Good detail even for its small scale! Parts align properly, and with a steady hand, you can build this proudly!

Easy to put together loved it

Great experience, easy peasy, quick delivery
