I really want to do an Air Cobra in 1/32. I don’t know if a kit exists. (The Air Cobra is the third plane in the above shot.)

If one doesn’t exist, it should! That’s cool looking!

Yes there is a 1/32 injection molded P-39 Airacobra kit. It was originally released by Special Hobby, and later reboxed by Revell Germany.

:hmm: So you have an A-10 and a P-40 and listen to Motörhead. Ok, I won’t give you a hard time about the German stuff now.

Bruce, I´d go with the Kittyhawk kit. Gray Wickham did really go to town with his review of this kit over on "The Modelling News".

Kenny, nothing wrong about having a soft spot for the 109! I am very tempted to get Tamiya´s 1/48 kit, but so far could resist. Too many kit already in the stash, among them several 1/32 scale 109s...

Thomas, those Revell Germany new tool 109’s are very affordably priced at the local shops. Somewhere around $30 or less. Far more affordable than the Hasegawa or Trumpeter kits. Same goes for their Mustang. The Eduard Weekend Edition kits are also in a similar price range. My only beef with 1/32 kits is that I am running out of display space...
