it sure does!
A Russian bird if I got tempted....
HK's Mosquito does not look that off to me ... I don't do contest and such and they just end up in a case.The one piece wing design is unique HK Models 1/32 de Havilland Mosquito B Mk IV Series II | Large Scale Planes and could pave for improvements maybe down the road in molding 
But you got to give HK credit for getting the ball rolling in multi-engine 1/32 A/C

Hobby bosses new Swalbe in 1/48 scale.
??Me 262 A-1a???-1/48??-HobbyBoss??
They did the recce version previously, this one is the fighter version and supposedly they will do a 2 seater version in the future.
I don't own any hobby boss kits so don't know anything about their quality but I think this one is nice one.
Screen cap of the english translation.
Link to sprue shots if your interested.

Good stuff chaps.
I don't think I posted this, so here goes.
Sword 1/48th scale E.E. Lightning T4 and T5 kits are imminent, although no prices yet.
If they're anything like their 1/72nd scale series of Lightning kits, they should be excellent, and very reasonable, price wise - their fully detailed, including PE parts, 1/72nd scale lightnings are comparable in price to the basic (but very good) re-tooled Airfix kit.
And especially for Karl - Xtradecal have already released decal sheets for them, which include an OCU machine from Middleton St.George.
I think I'll definitely have to break my 'No More Kits' rule (again!!), and add one to the stash to be left to Karl and my daughter in my Will !

Good stuff Red Two. I think my brother has probably got some good colour shots of the M.St.G Lightnings, and I probably have some grainy B&W pics too, somewhere.
I really shouldn't get any more kits, as I have enough to get through - too many for my current state of health - but I was considering a later Lightning to add to the F1A anyway, maybe a F6 in camouflage, and a two-seater just has to be added to the list, especially one that was (at the time) a 'local boy' !!

Interesting. Thanks Wayne and very nice 262 you built there. I have checked out John's build in GB26 and the kit like looks pretty good.
Hearing rumours that Tamiya's next 1/32 kit is going to be a ME-262....

Well that's an odd number old boy, and we can't have that, can we? Better get one to even things up, what ?!
