Review: Spitfire - Really nice kit, good for mid range builders, and looks quite nice once completed. For clarification the only items included is an unbuilt kit and a decal sheet. Happy building.
Review: I would still buy it but... - Honestly, I should have said something sooner. When I got the kit, it wasn't sealed but I assumed that everything was there when I received it because it was listed as "like new" condition. So a few weeks go by and I'm finally ready to start building. I usually have three models in the que so not building them right away is sort of normal. Now, I'm a few days into it and I realize, there are no clear parts. The whole clear parts tree is missing. Currently, I am working with AirFix America to get a replacement, but if you are going to list something that is "like new" the only thing missing should be the plastic wrap. Okay, now for the model. For the money, I would have probably bought a Tamiya kit. The parts in this kit are good quality, though I do have a molding blemish on the horizontal stab, but I can fill it. The fit of the parts so far isn't great. There are some model design decisions that are a bit bizarre to me, but don't take my word for it. There just seems to be a few instances where the pieces could be better aligned with a few design changes. I'll update this review when I'm done. In summary, it's a bit of a challange, but at the price I paid, I guess I shouldn't complain too much. HINT-You can build many of the rockets right on the sprue. Update-Airfix was not able to supply me with the missing clear parts. So, I had to fabricate the position light from clear parts of another kit. I was able to purchase a F22/24 canopy from an aftermarket company. Hope it fits.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice kit with no issues putting together.
*by T***Y on August 2, 2024*

This kit fell together and looks great now that it's complete. My only problem is the landing gear. The joint fixing this to the wing is weak. It needs a strong glue to make it solid. No problems with the build otherwise.
