Tamiya have updated their website with some new informations about their much anticipated 1:32 scale Spitfire kit. Link to Item If you have comments or questions please post them here. Thanks!

OH Crumbs !,Not another post Battle Of Britain version,when are we gonna get a chance to own a MK 1. WITHOUT having to pay a fortune on E-Bay for Hasegawa`s version or settleing for Revell`s version which is SORELY in need of re-tooling. Thanks for nothing Tamiya !! |:( |:( |:(

The Mark IX was the most prolific mark of Spitfire, IIRC. If there is going to be a 1/32 version, I'd rather it be the IX than a I. Either way, the "thanks for nothing" nonsense just sounds petulant. If you don't want a Mark IX, that's just fine - don't buy one.

I`m very happy Tamiya is doing the MkIX in 32nd scale. Not my fancy to do pre-orders, but, when they come I`ll post another installment in the ``What the Postman Brought`thread. The only complaint I have is that the JE-J colors have already been over-done. Although MK392 may have been colorful, I`ll be looking for alternatives.

After all if it wasn't for the Mk.1, there would have been no requirement for a Mk. IX. Plus the Mk.1 just looks so much...

After "fixing" the RoG BF110, I will be THRILLED to build this one OOB. Mark I, Mark IX, I don't really care. I understand those who want a BoB version, but I'm just a duffer with RAF planes and look forward to a build without the need for 2x-3x the kit price in AM #$%&.
