Baldrick!

This is another bust for me! I have a large collection of all of them. I still have three Sweet P-51b`s to build!

Rich,

Yeah, there's nothing really 'new' here as far as 1/144 goes, although it looks like the RAF P51B may have a Malcolm Hood cockpit. I wish they'd get a bit more adventurous and start a line of Allied light/medium bombers, but I guess with the preponderance of the Gashapon market being local, they need to keep providing Japanese subjects. That said, without simply re-releasing older kits with new plumage, there are still quite a few Japanese aircarft out there which haven't been covered (Ki45 Nick (early, rounded nose version), Ki67 Peggy, Ki30 Ann, Q1W Lorna, Fiat BR20 in Japanese service, Zero/22, A5M Claude). Anyway, I was very surprised and pleased to see the Sunderland appear from Algernon, so there's still hope!
