    fantastic releases. Really didn't see the Lysander coming it came straight out of left field and is a fantastic subject. Really pleased to see Airfix do it. Well done Airfix :)

    Early war? A 1/48 Fairey Battle would be nice.

    I'd have loved to have seen the SEAC markings in the box

    It does mean i can stop looking at my Eduard special edition Lysander quite so hungrily. Thankyou Airfix

    Nice brief mate. I’m absolutely staggered that they’ve not upscaled their 1/72 Spey Phantom. Ur as you said; there’s a spreadsheet somewhere l; would we all live a peek at that!

    I think its fair to say, That when Airfix ask what would you like to see. The Lysander, in any scale is a very common choice. Its certainly up there on my list, along with a Scout/Wasp.

    Wot No 1/24 TSR.2 - I'm writing to my MP - Seriously some people need to get a life - I'll make do with the Heller 1/48 Jaguar for the time being!
    Going to get the HC.4 Junglie sadly not the Lysander, not my bag, but it looks lovely - well done Airfix
    Be patient Jamie I am sure you shall return to Telford one year.

    Nice video Jamie thank you. I really like you informed, experienced, humourous and concise approach. I also like what Airfix does in terms of these announcements as it gets everybody talking about them. I am excited by the Lizzie. My only thought is what do with the Eduard re-boxed one that I bought that I bought a while back. Hey ho, it is only money 😊.

      I think there are a few with the Eduard rebox in their stash. I pulled mine out and looked at the decal options - what do you know - SEAC markings as well as a spy taxi option. Now if the ladder and long range tank are on the sprues...hmmm

    Lysander is overdue!
    I built the Eduard-Gavia kit, very nice😊
    Now, I'm a Yank & see this as a desirable addition BUT...
    Airfix I think needs to add some foundational 48th kits like bombers.
    I know HK is doing that but do any of us really think tariffs etc aren't coming for Chinese manufacturing?...

    Great choices by Airfix, both good subjects, both would make for a good diorama in varied situations if desired. Nice!

    The main thing that struck me with the Lysander is the flaps and slats option. Most images I have of the Lysander show them down, but the Eduard/Gavia doesn`t have this option. I have two Eduard and an SBS engine, but I still might get the Airfix.

    Two releases with local interest for us here in Somerset!

    Brilliant surprise this, great to see. For me the biggest missed opportunity Airfix have right now that I don’t really see mentioned is a 1/48 Hawker Typhoon. They’ve done it in 1/72, and unlike the other RAF fighter types from WW2 they wouldn’t really have a competitor. Eduard have smashed the Tempest out of the park, Arma have done the same with the Hurricane, and it’s hard to see past Tamiya/Eduard for most marks of Spitfire- but the only competition out there for the Typhoon would be the Hasegawa kit, which is a quarter century old now. Anyway, ramble over- nice update, can’t wait to see your Gulf Sea King!

    Hi jamie, that's fantastic news on both kits. I, for one, will definitely preorder the Lysander. Yes, it's a pity they didn't do a new tool, hampden, but I'm sure it will come in time. Plus, I've preordered the sea king as I really do like the helicopter. cheers, Gary uk 🇬🇧

    Hey Jamie nice video - great releases from Airfix - I’m flying over to Telford in the morning, really looking forward to it, shame you can’t make it buddy, cheers Liam.

    In 1/24th scale the Lysander would be awesome. 1/48th, not so much for me.

    Hi Jamie, hope you're well.
    Airfix have had a fantastic week, with the Bristol Superfreighter Vintage classic earlier and now today's news!
    I'm more inclined to but this Sea King version than the first release, and I think this one looks incredible with 4 fantastic versions! The Lysander however is absolutely wonderful news! Looks a beautifully detailed model, which will hopefully go together well (the new tooled stuff generally does) and it opens up more versions as you said. I really hope people will give Airfix bashing a rest for a while now! Getting a bit fed up with all the negativity surrounding them lately. We want this, why don't they do that?! Give me a break!! Get a grip! You're never going to like everything, every manufacturer does. I think Airfix do really well considering the restraints they have to operate under or within, etc. I'm really looking forward to next year's releases and the future too. Look forward to your vid later mate! 👍 Hope the 12 (or is it 14!) conversion is going well.
    Take care 👍👊

    Best reaction video on the Lysander that I have watched so far, Jamie.
    Canadian Spitfire pilot, Dave Hadfield has three videos of Lysander, '416' that are worth a watch.
    We should not mind the wait for new kit subjects as it gives time for improvements in design/manufacturing and the excitement in the anticipation. The only subject that I find a little odd in waiting this long for is a updated or a new tool;
    1/32 Tamiya F-4E, EJ. Despite having two E nose spare sprue parts to convert J kits, I have made a silicone mold for casting noses, 4 to date. It appears that Tamiya are focused on 1/48.

    I love surprises and I love the new Lysander model. I like the new Sea King variants. Yes, Airfix needs to go on doing these out-of-the-blue releases around Telford time, it adds to the fun and creates more excitement. Now if Airfix has a Lysander landing in Telford as an opening gambit, wouldn’t that be ultra cool? 😊

      Yeah, and unlike "Galaxy Quest", it could land in the car park safely!

    Can we have the Lysander in 24th scale to go with the latest Spitfire please ?

  • @nickcowell4744

    Why isn't there a cross-over between Hornby and Airfix? They're missing a trick there. No AIrfix Mallard? No AIrfix Flying Scotsman? Mystifying.

    Great release, I will be getting one…. However, I hope Airfix don’t punch themselves in testes and ruin the new kit with QC issues

    Pinger, Junglies and I've also heard I think Baggy, what are those nicknames about? 🤨🤔
    Definitely need a Sea King! I'm ever so slightly (😉) excited about the Lysander! 😳😲😎

    • @impartialbystander3758
      @impartialbystander3758 9 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา +1

      “Pinger” = Anti Submarine Warfare (ASW) as fitted with a sonar which went “Ping”.
      “Jungly” = Commando which stems from the Malaysian/Borneo days where the helicopters operated in the jungle.
      “Bagger” = Air Early Warning (AEW) where some older ASW helicopters were stripped and fitted with AEW radar that was mounted externally in a bag.
      Hope that helps.

    Quietly I‘m hoping they‘ve done this pre-SMW announcement annnnnnnd then they hit us with a real big hitter on the big day itself, yeah - 1/32 Barracuda... ..two good kits but not rocking my boat. Intrigued by the Lizzy pilot gouge though Jamie. Dave.
