As the title says. Due to the Operation Downfall GB, I have been inspired to get some of the Japanese late-war aircraft. The problem at the moment is finding a decently priced kit of the Kikka in 1/72. There are a couple of AZ Models boxings for sale on eBay, but they are going for north of two hundred pounds

I know it's in a book I have around here somewhere....

That's ludicrous, you can get a 1/32 scale kit of one for half that much!  :banghead:
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! :)
