Eduard’s is more detailed than Airfix. Interesting...

Yes it is!

Here another comparision picture of the spinners, not so big in first sight, but then you start to look more at the few details on the Eduard spinner you see a significant difference.

The Airfix kit looks good so far Kari! Now show us you Eduard! :giggles:

Looking good, it does look like a mustang.
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall
