Title: Italeri P-40E/K in 1/48 scale
Post by: xray4277 on May 27, 2019, 02:05:55 AM
Just found this, is it a completely new kit or a reissue? Looks interesting as it comes with decals for 6 different models and you can build it with the modified tail fin of the early K variants.

Gotta get one! And just as I thought I was reducing the number of kits on my 'to do' list....

It's a reissue with new decals, although there has been discussion over on the Aussie modeller forums that they have some accuracy issues:

Oh that's OK then. I won't obsess about things like that and I'm sure I can cobble together a reasonably accurate model!
