Hi Chuck Wow! Some of those look fun - the war-weary search & rescue Thunderbolt could make for a really interesting paint job! All the best Rowan

Mr. Cusack, Where are the 1/48 WWI kits? The Spad XIII was the best of its kind. The Dr.I and D.VII were acceptable. The D.VIII was a good kit. Why were they ever stopped and when will they be re-released.
