    I'm glad you took the plunge with the Eduard King Tiger Batcode - I was thinking about getting it if it matched the quality of their aircraft kits.

    Not now though!

        im not saying the tigers bad, just I personaly expected more to it like with there aircraft kits you do get a rebox but with some nice touches and nice extras but with the tighre you don't, theres no interior as thought there would been, if knew then think I would got the acadmy one, ok got this on ebay for £24 posted which is at least £15-£20 cheaper than most .

        as for the figure the detail is superb and the resin is so clean no marks or even airbubbels , but im worried as I cant do the faded paint and flesh

                I've made this, and makes a good model, but I payed full price, which was considerably more than £4

                        Been after this for a while, and finally got my mitts on it !! Btw, I doubt I'll do both ( its the double boxing ), so if anyone else fancies one, let me know

                          Its arrived - ordered direct from Airfix who are just up the road from me... It seems that a lot of model shops have already sold out. Ordered mine Saturday.

                          Though I am at work I did open up and take a quick look and it seems Airfix have upped their game in both packing and in their instructions...... All colour pictures of the made up model included appropriately weathered at the back.... a first for that I have seen.... Attached is a pic of the first page of construction showing a new drawiong style I have not seen with Airfix before. I recon we will be seeing great things from Airfix in future... Sorry the first photo is not the right way up and I dont know how to correct it.
