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
This is the one produced by the ex-Wingnut Wings guys right? It does indeed look a nice kit from what I've seen of it - I hope the new company does well.

First I've heard of this company; I didn't know the name of the company that got Wingnut Wings. I should have guessed with the description of the kit above. Bruce, looking forward to seeing this box opened. Enjoy!

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.
If I wasn’t so stubborn, I’d throw out my sidelined old Revell 1/32 Spitfire Mk.I and get one of these…

Oh nice! A classic fighter indeed.
Reminds me I saw my first Spitfire in 2 different museum when my family & I visited Ottawa this past August. One was hanging from the ceiling at the Canadian War Museum (Mk.I) the other at the Canadian Aviation Museum (Mk.XVIe).
Seeing it up close, it’s really not a large aircraft compared to say... a P-47 Thunderbolt. I can say the same to the Bf-109 that’s on display there as well. Both the 109 & the Spitfire were close to the same size overall.
