Ok Jim. Don't chew me out like that, how was I to know? Check Scalemates? Oh right just make a fool of me will you. Gee Jim can you ever forgive me, OH PLEASE JIM, PLLLLLASE JIM FORGIVE ME!
I wasn't sure which kit/s were best - the first Airfix offering was of this was in 1959!!
The Italeri kit looks good for medium ? level build.
The Special Hobby kit review has 48 photos for the kit as unboxed and includes what looks like all of the interior, including
decals for internal signs. Probably one for advanced builders as there looks to be a lot of hours - it's a MKIII.
Being in Australia I'll have to take what comes along though as overseas freight is a killer here.

Decisions decisions decisions decisions!
Money money money...... These are all $80 and up. My first big 1/72 kit was an Airfix Short Stirling for $7.00. Granted it was before the invention of the motor vehicle
but these new fangled ones just seem to be so much more. Rule 101 - don't have a long break from modelling and it won't seem so bad ?
So get the airfix one an just have fun with it. (I can't believe I just said that.)
Whatever you are on, I want a kilo of it. Then again, the Airfix one would probably fit my skill level.

Don't overthink it. Jump in and enjoy. As I always say, I do plastic models. I get to sniff glue and play with sharp objects
I was given a Revell 1/700th Tirpitz by my son a few years ago and I still have to finish that. The Revell model is a shrink down from
their 1/350th model so just as many bits but a hell of a lot smaller. If I can finish that in one piece a 1/72 Sunderland should be easy.
So we cancel the kilo too as I forgot about the glue

Yep. Looks a nice kit, from what I've seen in reviews and the Airfix web site. Might get another one and paint it in the colours of the one I used to get to fly, now and then, back in the 80's / 90's.
