The Model Cellar would like to announce it's new release for March 2010:
a WWI British Royal Flying Corps (RFC) Pilot Officer.

Sculpted by Mike Good, he is wearing the 1914 pattern "maternity" jacket and a pair of flying boots. The figure is posed in a relaxed stance, smoking a cigarette, leaning on his walking stick. It comes with a complete, full, bare head. A separate officer's cap is included as an accessory which can be placed anywhere. One idea is to position the pilot next to the aircraft and place his officer's cap on the wing. A generic pilot, he would look great next to any 1/32 WWI British aircraft.

The kit particulars are:

WWI British RFC Pilot Officer
Item #32007
retail price: $22.50USD



Hope you like him.
regards,
Paul

He would have to be in an RNAS uniform.
