Re: new FOV 1/32 Spitfire

I think I saw one of those at my local Toys R Us last week.
 

Brewster Buffalo, Hawk 75A, Fokker D.XXI, Polikarpov I-16, Fiat G.50, Macchi C. 200, PZL P.11c, Fieseler Fi 156 Storch ,,,, now those are real planes.

That's not a bad looking Spitfire. Might have to get me one for my office desktop display. TY for the heads up.

Re: new FOV 1/32 Spitfire

Sorry guys but I've gotta be the minority opinion here. The rivets are too many and too prominent. The prop still has the funky set-up and from what I saw the QC leaves alot to be desired. Other than that I love the paint scheme and the pilot figure is very nice!

SKYDRIVER:

Thanks for the price info.

Target's $29.99 sounds better than Badcat's $44.99 plus shipping.\

I'm curious as to how 21st Century's upcoming 1/32 Spitfire will compare too FOV's Spitfire. The FOV Spitfire's weathering sure looks impressive while 21st does little, if any, weathering on their planes.

Re: new FOV 1/32 Spitfire

I like the scheme alright but not the titanic looking tank bolts on there....
I'll stick with my Corgi's 1:32.
