REVIEWER:

Scott Van Aken

Starting on another group of sets for famous British aircraft, this is the first set for the Lancaster in 1/72 scale. The first set is an exterior detail set. Much of this is for the wheel wells and there are separate bits for the Airfix and Hasegawa kits to make sure that it properly fits the kit you are working on. There are also engine cowling bits, an aft access door group, control linkages, bomb bay door end plates and various nose antenna.

As with other White Ensign sets, the number of tiny parts is kept to a minimum with several of the assemblies being rather large and one simply bend and then installs them. A lot better than adding a zillion teeny little braces and other easily lost bits.
