Hi all
I was going to build a Tiger but there seem to be a lot of big pussy cats already so I thought I'd do something a bit different. However as it's a nice long GB I still might get the Tiger in after this.
I would have preferred the newer Revell kit but this was very cheap on an ebay auction and reviews say it is not too bad. The only extras I'll use are a set of canopy masks and some PE to improve the interior.
I'll put up sprue shots when I actually start.
There seem to be a few wing fold kits for the Revell Gannet but the only one for the Trumpeter kit is from Alley Cat Models. It is expensive, twice the price I paid for the kit. Trouble is I'm not sure how things are with Alley Cat at the moment. There seems to be a bit of a problem with supply. I have contacted them but got no reply. I am loath to send them an order if there are difficulties. Any info would be much appreciated.
