I noticed on the Airfix website that they were taking orders for the brand new tooling in 1/48 scale of the Lynx family of helicopters. This evening it has appeared on some Model Shop websites.

Can't wait to get mine, I've been saving a discount code for these two.

For those rivet counters out there a bit of news, the rivets on these two are different not just in number but in placement on the few panels that are the same, one of the reasons it's taken Airfix so long to get them out. That's from looking at pre production samples at a few shows Airfix showed them at.
