Airfix1/72 Lanc B111 Dambuster
Posted by sharkbait on Friday, November 21, 2003 2:28 PM
Wandering the stores here in Iran and found this kit 1/72 Airfix Lancaster BIII Dambuster " premier collection" kit 98004 comes with 4 cans humbrol paint 1 brush and glue. Something to build when i come back in January.
Two questions.
paid 29 US for it - how is that price - the guy has lots of models- ships planes ect mostly Airfix.
Unfortunatey no spray paint or other stuff available and can't carry paint back as baggage.
Plan to bring back stuff to finish it -42 days should let me complete it if I stay off the computer.
Anybody got suggestions for a good photoetch kit to use - it will be my first attempt at photoetched parts.
Cheers

Well the price is O.K, and the kit has been given the thumbs up since it came out in 1993, its based on a 1980 mold that replaced an ancient Airfix Lancaster from the 50's, theres various issues - B1, B1 special, B3 or B3 special, all based on the origonal release so you'll find a few unused parts for the spares box too ! mine was built OOB but i'm sure detail sets are out there .........
