a question : the yellow tip of the propellers are only on the front side, or recto -verso (front and rear )?

[jaws]

Very disappointing as far as aircraft are concerned....the same old stuff yet again....nothing truly retools of kits already in the range.

"F-18 variant being the most produced" F-18 Meteor. Really. Video quality control needs to be better than this.

[VileTraveller]

Would be useful if these videos stated which kits had new moulds, new parts, or new decals.

[MisterHampshire]

Sorry, I had to stop after less than a minute in. Why must you fall in to that obsession with background music over everything? Never mind it being too loud, it's incredibly intrusive and distracting. It detracts from the point of the video - the narration. I really, really don't understand why people have to do it.
That aside, I'd love to see all at 1/48 post-war Royal Naval aircraft. A (mainstream) Gannet AEW3, F4-K Phantom, Whirlwind helicopter, Scimitar, Hunter T8 Trainer, etc.

I wonder when Graf Spee became Graf Spea. When I was young the word Spee was pronounced Spay, viz watch "Battle of the River Plate" film. Similarly I notice Dale pronouce Eugen as You-gen when it always used to be more like Oih-gen (with a hard G) viz "Sink the Bismark" film. The makers of the films mentioned were much nearer to the events portrayed so they might be considered reasonably knowledgeable.
I don't blame those who haven't been told better, after all with all those who lived through it and heard news reels an such are pretty much all passed away now.
PS both those mentioned above are excellent films.

[alanveck]

Please, please, please (pretty please) can we have a 1/48 Puma Helicopter kit 😛😛😛

[mattaustin]

I’m a bit out of the loop, as I didn’t realise that Airfix had released the Meteor F.8 a couple of years ago, so seeing it here as part of the F.8/FR.9 got me really excited. As an Aussie, I can finally do a decent RAAF Korean War example without having to kitbash an ancient Mk III kit or find some chunky limited-run example.

[joelbayen]

Not any information on the SCALE, which is essential on model kit. Pretty unprofessional isn'it ? And its recurrent, the video maker doesn't improve on his mistakes.

[williamanderson]

How about 1/72 Canberra, T.S.R. 2 and E.E.Lightening as a triple kit or just 1/72 T.S.R.2 and E.E.Lightening together.

[justy]

Still waiting for a UH-1Y Venom and AH-1Z Viper in 1/72 or 1/48.. Aiffix had a much better and larger selection of stuff in the late 1980s and into the 1990s...
It's only the usual Spitfire and Sea King versions all the time..

[MrFelipefelop]

Well, to be honest your all missing a trick, Dear Airfix quit on a 1/35 LRDG Truck, Tamiya binned it and its been like that for years.
Wake up, look how many have been sold over time.
The top knobbers are still asleep, nothing new here

[dingerbell]

The Sea King MK 4 DID have all of the attributes of other Sea King types…the folding rotor & tail. It was built like so.

HTF else would they fit them down the lift into the hangar deck of HMS Ocean???

[WatchingThere]

Hey AIRFIX - plenty of customer feedback here. Suggest you engage and respond to what's being written....🤔

[themajesticmagnificent]

Keep up the great work..Airfix are certainly going in the right direction and the new kits look excellent..
Would Airfix consider making our new helicopter the Wildcat in 1/48..I think it’s a kit that Airfix would make a great kit of it, like the Seaking..It’s a beautiful helicopter in U.K service..

[jonasmith]

You know what I think me and I can guarantee other people want is there to be a re sell of the airfix quick build planes but with either retractable landing gear or extra pieces of landing gear. That would be incredible

[docbrown_]

Wowee there is some negativity in these comments. Chill chill chill 😂😂😂

[SeasideWitcher]

Good news, looking forward to this year, but remember the dinosaur kits ? They would be good to bring back, for the parents that don't want warfare items in the home, but modeling is such a positive for lids

[The_Male_Modeller]

Looking forward to seeing the scheme options for the Beaufort. I built the first boxing and it's a gorgeous kit!

[simonartley]
