A really useful set for those who have the Fujimi A5M4! Thanks for sharing, Nick!

Thanks Nick - Marabu, I need 1/48 scale please!

Unfortunately, that is no longer in my power. I am glad that I am able to catch 1/72.:-)))

I agree with Rob - Marabu is very responsive to those of us who love Japanese aircraft, and I'm always glad to see their 1/72 stuff here, it's beautiful work; I wish their items were avaialable in 1/48 however, which I'm more likely to build. The several 1/48 Fine Molds kits of Claude and Babs, for instance, have seen no offerings by Eduard or others.

Thanks Nick, for showing us these, I've had several Marabu sets and they are consistently good.
