Still waiting for a decent inexpensive 1/72 kit to come out . . .

Some nice kits there.  Mmm, Super-Tucano in 1/72.  Temptings, and the exchange rate isn't too bad for the Aussie Dollar.  ;)

Well, the Brazilian does one in 1/72, both the single and the two-seater versions.  Of course "inexpensive" is relative but you could check out the prices:

There is a Polish outfit called Warrior Models that does a 1/72 Resin AMX. I got one from Aeroclub last year for my clubs SMW theme. It's not a bad little kit, although it is a bit light in the stores dept, it does come with a pair of very nice MK82 bombs and several decal options 5 Italian and 2 Brazillian.  I will post pics if they are wanted.

Oops forgot to mention the price - It was about the £15 mark I seem to remember

That's not much more than we're going to be paying for a decent 1:72 IM kit if/when we ever get one.

I know, which is why I jumped at getting it in the first place, apart from needing one that is.
