Hi all out there
I,ve got a bit of a dilemma and was wondering what others thought.
I've recently got a hold of a "Battle Of Britain 50th Anniversary" kit (Lancaster / Spitfire / Hurricane) by Airfix but I also have a Revell "B o B 30th Anniversary" kit that still has the wrapping on it.
The question I'm asking you guy's out there is which one would you build and which is the better as a collectors item
Answers on a post---- :-) :-) (no! no!)
I would really like your views

My advise,
Build both kits!
Plastic in a box is just plastic in a box. Plastic with glue and paint added is the way God intended it to be.
My two cents worth

Hi Steve.
Ive had a think about this.
Taking into account that both sets are collectors sets and still sealed,plus the cheapness of the individual kits,( the Spit is readily available for less than a fiver),
I would be tempted to put them away and save them.
Sacralige,,I hear you all cry!!
Just my thoughts.
You can always keep an eye out on Ebay etc and see what similar collectors sets are selling for and if the value doesnt start going up go ahead and build them.

Well after a long think I've decided to do the "Airfix" kit.
Will see how long it takes as loft freezing with the snow were getting :-)
now where is that instruction sheet
