Hi Phil

Excellent news! I think they'll be a collective cry of "About time too!".

All the best

Definitely one that had gone missing over the years, good to see Airfix picked up on it. I love to see the rare birds getting picked up lately.

Oh, and yes "It's About Time , too!"

Nice news -thanks!...

Incidentally, according to my calculations, yjis kit is around 20+ years late. It was going to be released and then Airfix had financial problems. Any takers for the fact it's an old (but unused/unreleased) mould.?...Jim

Yes guys, excellent news.

I suggest you drop by http://whatifmodelers.com and thank the many TSR.2 enthusiast there who worked with Airfix to establish the plan for this kit.

Without them, it wouldn't have been possible!
