But then did every RW Hurricane actually match all the other ones too?  ;D

😂

Oddly enough the Venerable Airfix Tin-Wing Hurricane I matches plans really well.  It's reputedly captures the Hurricane's shape really well - better than most other 1/72 Hurricanes, other than the Airfix rag-wing and ArmaHobby kits.  That said, I believe the AZ kits are also strong shape- and outline-wise.

Anyway, the VATWH is a good utility kit.

I must admit I do like the rag-wing Hurricane I. I've got an ArmaHobby one in The Loft, but have yet to open the box. One day..........................
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! :)

I do hope ArmaHobby release a Mk IV at some point.  Would certainly invest in one.
