Out of Production

The 1:48 BAe Hawk 127 & Pilatus PC-6 families are out of production due to damage to the moulds.  We are working on a correction set for the Airfix BAe Hawk 127 and a new tool Pilatus PC-6.

We will not be restocking kits based on the old 1:72 Mirage III tooling (e.g. Mirage IIID, Mirage III EBR, Mirage IIIC) until after the launch of the new tool Mirage IIIE family.  If you would like one of these, please contact us directly as we can custom box a small quantity.
