Airfix are back, thanks to Hornby who saved them from certain extinction. Airfix have released four new sets, well nearly new, as they are repackaging some of their older kits as diorama sets. The pre-formed bases can be painted to provide a diorama area to place the models in each set onto. Hopefully these sets will tempt a new generation of model builders into the fold.
All in 1/72nd scale and priced at a reasonable £14,99p each. The four new sets are.

WWII USAAF Airfield Set. which comprises of a P-51D Mustang, Willys Jeep, USAAF Personnel and a Airfield Diorama Base.

WWII RAF Airfield Set. . which comprises of a Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I, the RAF Refuelling Set, RAF Personnel and a Airfield Diorama Base.

WWII Luftwaffe Airfield Set . which comprises of a Messerschmitt Me 109E, Opel Blitz & pAK 40, Luftwaffe Personnel and a Airfield Diorama Base.

Modern RAF Airfield Set . which comprises of a Bae Harrier GR.3, a Scorpion Tank, NATO Ground Crew and Airfield Diorama base.
