Greetings WIX modellers...
Im on the lookout for the Hawk dual V-1/Baka gift set from the late 1950's/early 1960's. Although not the most accurate version of these kits (e.g. iron cross decals for the wings!) I've been after one of these for years. I do have the single kits but wouldn't mind trading them in for a dual gift kit.
The box art is somewhat funny with the Baka and V-1 flying in formation with a kit name "Terror Attackers" which is not a good marketing idea post 9/11....
I do build models from time to time where travel permits (finished off a 4th FG Red Nose P-51 just like ours in the Dixie Wing) but wanted to post this to WIX modelers for any ideas.
BTW...I will leave a poll question below for the most inaccurate artwork even seen on a kit box...

I might have one. E-mail me a reminder and I'll have a look during the week.
