--- Quote ---I'd like to see them bring their old 1/72 F-86D Dog Sabre back. It was the first airfix kit I ever built and I had a blast with it.
With Special Hobby's F-86K kit out there, I think that wish is a long shot, but I haven't seen that old Dog Sabre kit in years and I'd love to have one for wiffing these days.

Just for kicks and giggles, here's what I did with the old Airfix F-86D:

Sounds like they've been busy! Price hikes seem a bit much, I know they've got to get back on their feet but with Revell bringing out a Lanc for £15.... :unsure:
The Strike Master & Alpha Jets are worth a whiff or too. I'm sure the TSR.2 will be picked up even at that price, I hope there's some extra work gone into it to justify the price, but I won't be suprised if it's just cynical marketing looking at the average price it's gone for on e-bay.
EDIT, Just realised the TSR.2 is 1/48, £28 is not a bad deal!!! Foreget my comments about the price hikes!!! :dum:
