Not really a new thing, I had it on preorder for the last half a year or so until I cancelled last week after seeing it with a 10% preorder discount at Hannants. Still making my mind though between this one and Tamiya. Different scale but the detail on Tamiya is wonderful. Have anyone seen any prerelease reviews of the Airfix one for comparison?

If it's anything like the previous Mossie it should be outstanding, and much of it the same as the previous offering

But in terms of quality, I think Tamiya have it hand's down.
