Hi i am looking for a CAC Boomerang kit (aus fighter ww2)

i do not no if it is available.

Yes there are a few out of production plastic kits available in 1/48 LTD made a limited run kit that I built not too long ago and there is a 1/32 Resin kit made by Alley Cat usually quite expensive when you can find this one. There may be others as well,hope that helps and welcome to the forums.

Hi Yogo , welcome to the forum. The boomer is a great aircraft isnt it , as far as I'm aware there havent been too many kits but apart from the ones mentioned by Trey above I can add these - Special Hobby do a 1/72 kit and a 1/48 kit , and theres the old faithful Airfix in 1/72 . The Special Hobby kits are still in production but the airfix kit isnt but can still be found readily on E-bay and other such places . If youre not fussy about interior detail , the Airfix kit makes into a great little model , but if you want a bit more than a pilot on a slab seat then the special hobby kits are the way to go! Hope this helps ,cheers tony . P.S. if you want to see a couple of builds , use the search bar at the top , searching CAC Boomerang should bring up Treys 1/48 LTD build and my 1/72 Airfix one .

I built the 1/72 Airfix Boomerang too and it turned out a nice little model. I think I drilled the extra gun ports into the wings but apart from that it was standard out of the box stuff.
