Pretty exciting. Explains why I finally found a reasonable 1/48 Hasegawa kit a few months ago...
Interior looks great. Airfix site says pre-order 54 pounds - I was expecting much more

Expect the Hasegawa kits starting to get sold off secondhand. And the interior options on the Airfix kit... excellent!

The kits going to be at Nationals. Not sure if it'll be for sale though.
