A guy at my club recently brought in a bunch of old 1/72 aircraft kits and I was struck by the quality. The parts were clean and crisp...keep in mind that these were old kits from the seventies. The boxes were well faded and dusty. If they'd been 1/48 kits I'd have bought them all! When I compared what I'd seen to my more recently bought Airfix kit the thought occurred that the only problem with Airfix is the age of their moulds. I begin to suspect that the new Airfix (Hornby) kits may not be that bad after all.
