I ordered the Airfix A50116 Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Collection Spitfire, Hurricane & Lancaster 1:72 Scale Military Aircraft Gift Set with Paint Glue and Brushes for my fiance as it is like the one he built with his dad when he was a child. He is over the moon with it and is amazed with the quality. The airfix kit is the first we have ordered so may take a while to build but so far an amazing kit with quality equipment. A great present for a child at heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good value, prompt dispatch
Particularly useful that the product comes with paints, which saves much faffing around, and that the paint washes out with water. You pretty much what you're getting. Read more
