Model Forum / General / Models / July 2006Airfix Canberra
Looking on another group, someone claims it may be cancelled due to lack of interest?! Anyone? Ian That's news to me. AFAIK it's still on the burner. Apparently Classic Airframes is selling them as fast as they can make them, so I don't see the "lack of interest." Of course, Airfix may be thinking that CA beat them to the punch, so there may not be enough in it for them. Altho, if they're significantly cheaper than the CA kits they may still sell well. > Looking on another group, someone claims it may be cancelled due to > lack of interest?! > > Anyone? > > Ian "Don McIntyre" <DDonSS3@aol.com> wrote > if they're significantly cheaper than the CA kits they may still sell > well.

CA has gotten to rich for my blood and a I had a rather poor customer service experience with Jules. I'm definitely a customer for Airfix, especially if they do a B-57 so I could do a SEA camoed one. They're purty. Frank If you want to do a B-57 in SEA camo then the Italeri / Testors B-57 is a nice kit. If I'm not mistaken Airfix is doing this one to replace the hacked up Canberra molds the destroyed to make the B-57.

Details of the new Airfix kits can be found here: http://airfix.com/cs/blogs/articles/archive/2006/02/20/27218.aspx John Thanks Don, I didn't realize it was 1/48 since no one had mentioned scale.

It would be nice if Airfix could scale it down and release it in 1/72 as well. 30 quid for the High Planes model is a bit steep.  SignatureEnzo I wear the cheese. It does not wear me. |
