Airfix new 1/72 Bomber re-supply set

[lancfan]

This looks brilliant and yes, £17 seems a lot but if you count the vehicles/combos as separate kits you get a tractor and bomb trollies(1), a fuel bowser trailer & maintenance tower(2), a Bedford MW with two different bodies(3) and a supply of bombs and accessories for any WW2 RAF bomber dio you wish to build(4) four kits which as series one offerings would add up to £23.96.
We do desparately need more figures but NOT in that foul bendy toy plastic, THEY MUST BE IN HARD PLASTIC.

It is somewhat a shame that the sprues aren't laid out with each item in its own section so they could be independent small kits, even package a half-dozen bikes in one, 2-4 towers, etc. Several could be on one large sprue for production, but a simple snip would separate into smaller items. That would allow one to build out the basic set rather than buying several and having lots of spares ....

Academy separate their small vehicles to good effect so it would make sense for Airfix to do the same.
