Forget the SPAD--the kit is worth the figures! Awesome model.

I really wish I could afford this as the Spad is one of my favourite planes and the figures are awesome I remember seeing the concept drawings of the figures as part of the pre-release on there website and could see the diorama potential but the cost is what prohibiting me especially as there is a EU distributor that I'm aware of.

Set "C" would be my choice and all for $293 plus postage

Agree with Allen. I would consider this were there a E.U. dealer but load on postage to the UK, VAT, Import Duty and the Parcel Force "Handling Fee" and it's just too expensive collectively for what it is. Perhaps if there were not so many great kits out there at the moment then I may bite the bullet....but those Tamiya 1/32 Spits, P-51D, Academy SUFA and the pending WNW DVII, E1 DH, FE etc. etc. to name but a few, mean there is plenty out there to be going on with.
