Just been looking at Hannant's web site.I notice that the Tamiya 1/32nd scale Spitfires have increased in price by a substantial amount. Their P-51D is about to be discontinued, and replaced by a P51-D/K with different decals (basically the same kit), but with a price increase of around 20% !
So, we now have to pay in the region of £140 at full retail price, for a 1/32nd scale fighter sized kit?!!
OK, they're very good kits, but do they justify that price, when Revell, for example, can produce their current crop of more than acceptable 1/32nd scale kits at less than half that price, and less than 1/7th of that price for a fighter?!
Bl**dy banditry !!
