Scales?

IIRC these kits didn't give a scale on the box and were  basically all box scale.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Do they know something we don't?

Is there going to be a re-run of the series?
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

T1 is listed 1/144, T2 & T3 are 1/350.  Not very big for the price.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

The 1/350th T2 kits are the newer versions rather than the old, and much cruder, motorized
kits from the '60s that were "box-scale" and have been released and released and released ad
nauseam.

Fireflash is a new tool released in 2005 and is about 14 inches long.

Hobbycraft currently have the AiP Thunderbirds models on sale, discounted from £55 to £30.

I imagine this is a stock clearance, so hurry up if you want one.
