But Dude. This AND the Mustang? What have you got, a time machine? Lol

I've built the Mustang (awesome kit) and I have the Mossie - will be watching your builds with massive interest. 4 months - good luck :clap:

Thanks, and it does seem a little steep, but when I get going I tend to work 4-6 hours at a time on a kit, and run weekend marathon builds, so I'm very optimistic,!

Mossie and the mustang ! Fair play to you :bow::
I have both but looking at the mossie last night i doubt i could finish it in the four months time scale.
I'll be watching with interest as i'd like to get them both done over the winter.

She's definitely a daunting kit, but I figured why not just go for it?! If I finish it, awesome, if not, it got me the motivation to start the dang thing! Been sitting in my stash for 2 years. The Mustang has been there for about 4.

:jd: you've got your hands full there! Kit looks amazing, certainly no need for aftermarket with that one!

I haven't actually seen many of these built up, so I'll look forward to seeing yours. Good luck with it buddy :th: :th:

Excuse my ignorance but what does the "special" part entail?

These Tamiya 1/32 WW2 birds come with a lot of PE, reference manuals, and other goodies (the spitfire came with a mouse pad). I'm used to the older Tamiya kits, that were fairly basic.

I might have to have a goosey at one of these.
