Me 262 in 1/32

[Germanjim]

having a break away from the armour from a little while I've built and in the process of painting an old hasegawa 1/32 me 163 komet kit. So got me thinking I fancy building a me 262 in the same scale, but I'm totally bewildered by how many manufacturers there are. Now before committing to purchase one I would like any members opinion on what is the better kit. Thanks in advance. Jim

The best is the Trumpeter 1/32 Me 262.
I have the 1/32 Trumpeter Me 262A-1a with a BIG ED set in the stash, although the AM isn't that necessary. An OOB build is perfectly fine.
Best value is the Revell, but that is the 2 seater only
Cheers, John

I've never built it but the Revell 1/32 262 is meant to be a good one.

Another vote here for the Trumpeter Me 262.

The company takes some just abuse for some of its kits, but their Me 262 is the best one out there in 1/32.



Cheers

Agree with Steve, the Trumpeter 262 is an excellent kit. Just be careful about the wing/fuselage fit at the front, dry fit first.
