Airfix 1:72 Vampire T11 kit of WZ507

Post by Matt H »

The Vampire Preservation Group is delighted to announce that Airfix are releasing a 1:72 scale model kit of WZ507 in February 2013.

After almost two years of research and design, the Airfix Vampire T11 is finally about to be released. To pre-order this stunning kit, which builds into an incredibly detailed and accurate model of WZ507, simply visit our online shop http://www.vampirepreservation.org.uk/shop-gifts.htm and place your order – we will despatch your model(s) as soon as we receive the stock from Airfix! Remember, all proceeds from our online store are used to help keep WZ507 flying, so by purchasing your Airfix model of WZ507 directly from us can really make a difference and preserve WZ507 for future generations to enjoy.

Seems to be a great bit of marketing from both sides! :clap:

Wanted one of these for years and at last my prayers are to be answered!!! Expect an order in the new year!

Thanks Geoff!

It is a lovely little kit and in my very biased opinion (!) an ideal candidate for the "Peas in a Pod" GB suggested a few weeks ago... it could produce some very interesting results with all the options available!

Having not started the model tonight and going out with friends instead, I got thinking, how about letting Matt have first dibs on displaying the finished article. Thoughts and comments.

I'm not the fastest of builders, as my spare time is very limited! Feel free to start any threads regarding the Airfix T11 - I won't be offended!

However, I have made a start on the kit and have a thread running to show its progress:

I will try and update regularly, as I'm keen to see it finished!
