Special Hobby Messerschmitt Me 263V-1 with Sleuch Slepper

MPM Production look set to have a sure-fire hit on their hands with their latest 1:32 WWI aircraft - the famous Bristol "Bullet". Previously only available in this scale as a resin kit, the Bristol M.1C has long fascinated modellers as one of the classic "What-If"s of the Great War. Largely ignored by the RFC on account of its suspicion of monoplanes and the Bullet's supposedly high landing speed, we'll never know what impact the 130 mph fighter could have made over the Western Front, since it was side-lined to the Middle East.

Special Hobby have kindly sent us in a preview of their latest releases in 1:72 scale which are Avia C.2 and Arado Ar 96 B-1/B-3 kits. These are generally the same aircraft however, which were produced and used in different countries and circumstances.
