Superb, I was looking forward to a B-25 but a 1/32 scale Mossie and Beau will be even better, I can't wait

The P-61 looks like a very popular release. Fantastic news of this new company.

Oh I do want the P-61 and with the Mossie and Beaufighter in the mix can I dare hope for a Westland Whirlwind, that would be just out of this world
