I'm looking right now for a 1/48 Avro Lancaster. The only one I've been able to find so far is this Tamiya one. http://www.hyperscale.com/2009/features ... 48jv_1.htm http://www.internethobbies.com/ta1avlabmkbo.html Does anyone know of any other 1/48 Lancaster models out there or how good the Tamiya one is? Thanks, Ryan |

Thats it for choices. I have an original release but have not built it. The latest release has some new parts. You can look over the parts here. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10080258 Mike |

The Tamiya kit is nice, albeit with raised panel lines as I recall. It is also huge! I built the original release thirty-odd years ago and remember there was a bit of filling, but not bad for a kit of that era. I haven't seen the recent release. I understand it has a different rear turret (or is it the mid-upper?) and two types of propellers, both paddle and narrow-chord. My original had two pretty nice Merlins and removable cowlings on two nacelles. The engines and propellers are all I have left of the kit. ![]() |
