Vulcan, Anything besides Airfix ?

May 31, 2010 11 Replies

Just watched Thunderball and it got me interested in the kit again. Tossed my Airfix kit away years ago. Just way, way too much putty work needed on that one, and I suck at putty application.



so, has anyone else made a kit of this gorgeous aircraft?

lindberg but it's not very detailed and odd scaled also.

Frog did one many years ago in 1:90 I seem to remember, the moulds are somewhere in Eastern Europe now, they occassionally do short runs from the range under various names. Never tried it myself as it's not my scale.

Anigrand in Hong Kong do 1:144 resins of all the V Bombers but they are expensive at $88 plus $14 shipping for those kits. They also do other large aircraft in the same scale

and look at Large Birds

nd it got me interested in the kit again.

The lIndy is a prototype, and is listed as 1/96 although I don't know if that's accurate. Now I'm tempted to dig mine out and start it.

Have you looked at Welsh Models' Vulcans?

that sounds right. it's not hard to build, like the airfix. i never tried really detailing one, so let us know how it goes. i have another i may build but my airfix may just get given to someone i don't like.

Lindberg's is 1/96 and is good only for one or two prototypes.

Aurora did a Mr. Spock kit, but he was only half-Vulcan. :-)

I was waiting for someone to say something like that...
