I think its fair to say, That when Airfix ask what would you like to see. The Lysander, in any scale is a very common choice. Its certainly up there on my list, along with a Scout/Wasp.
I'm not currently building kits but that Lysander is very nice! I love 1/48 and bigger scales. Two of my favourite builds as a teenager were a 1/48 Tornado and P51 Mustang. I always fancied a 1/24 Spitfire but that never happened. Maybe a project for my upcoming retirement..
Brilliant surprise this, great to see. For me the biggest missed opportunity Airfix have right now that I don’t really see mentioned is a 1/48 Hawker Typhoon. They’ve done it in 1/72, and unlike the other RAF fighter types from WW2 they wouldn’t really have a competitor. Eduard have smashed the Tempest out of the park, Arma have done the same with the Hurricane, and it’s hard to see past Tamiya/Eduard for most marks of Spitfire- but the only competition out there for the Typhoon would be the Hasegawa kit, which is a quarter century old now. Anyway, ramble over- nice update, can’t wait to see your Gulf Sea King!
I love surprises and I love the new Lysander model. I like the new Sea King variants. Yes, Airfix needs to go on doing these out-of-the-blue releases around Telford time, it adds to the fun and creates more excitement. Now if Airfix has a Lysander landing in Telford as an opening gambit, wouldn’t that be ultra cool? 😊
The main thing that struck me with the Lysander is the flaps and slats option. Most images I have of the Lysander show them down, but the Eduard/Gavia doesn`t have this option. I have two Eduard and an SBS engine, but I still might get the Airfix.
What about a 1/48 Lockheed Hudson, no company doing it now. Hasn’t been around for a long time. A major WWII player. Been totally forgotten about. A good looking and interesting Bomber and patrol aircraft. Served with RAF, RAAF, RNZAF, USAAF, USN and many others. This aircraft needs to be recognised. Plenty examples on display in the world in museums including a flying one in Australia. Played a roll in most theatre’s of WWII. Don’t forget the Hudson. We need this aircraft. Cheers mate 🍻
Nice brief mate. I’m absolutely staggered that they’ve not upscaled their 1/72 Spey Phantom. Ur as you said; there’s a spreadsheet somewhere l; would we all live a peek at that!
fantastic releases. Really didn't see the Lysander coming it came straight out of left field and is a fantastic subject. Really pleased to see Airfix do it. Well done Airfix :)
1:48 Lysander is not for me, but, I think it is a fantastic addition to the range & can't wait to see the builds & I hope it sells by the bucket load, so that Airfix might consider scaling it down to 1:72 😉🤞)
Already pre ordered the HC-4 here in the US. I hope that airflow strake on the port tail boom is optional or can be removed easily; it wasn't present on Falklands era and earlier aircraft; it was present on the HAR 3 "Grey Whales" sent down in the fall of '82. I hope they also include a lifting frame or at least lifting cables that were pretty much standard. I doubt it, but there is hope. Now to find crew figures; I have a PJ Productions Lynx set i hope will fit. Black Dog has a set but they cost half as much as the kit itself; with postage to the US.... Not really an option.
Excellent, considered review of the releases. Airfix will never please everyone all of the time, but having stuck their plastic together for over 50 years I am more than happy with their releases even if some don't 'float my boat'. There was a good interview with Dale Luckhurst yesterday in which he addressed the QC issues, his frustration was obvious and they are making efforts to resolve the problem. In the same vein, Airfix Customer Services have been excellent and in my experience do their utmost to help us consumers. Lysander pre-ordered!
Nice video Jamie thank you. I really like you informed, experienced, humourous and concise approach. I also like what Airfix does in terms of these announcements as it gets everybody talking about them. I am excited by the Lizzie. My only thought is what do with the Eduard re-boxed one that I bought that I bought a while back. Hey ho, it is only money 😊.
I think there are a few with the Eduard rebox in their stash. I pulled mine out and looked at the decal options - what do you know - SEAC markings as well as a spy taxi option. Now if the ladder and long range tank are on the sprues...hmmm
Evening Jamie. I did make it to Telford and the Airfix Lysander is a thing of beauty. The pilot has to be one of the best representations in this scale. Sadly didn’t take a picture of the whole sprue, so can’t answer the ladder question.
Lysander is overdue! I built the Eduard-Gavia kit, very nice😊 Now, I'm a Yank & see this as a desirable addition BUT... Airfix I think needs to add some foundational 48th kits like bombers. I know HK is doing that but do any of us really think tariffs etc aren't coming for Chinese manufacturing?...
Wot No 1/24 TSR.2 - I'm writing to my MP - Seriously some people need to get a life - I'll make do with the Heller 1/48 Jaguar for the time being! Going to get the HC.4 Junglie sadly not the Lysander, not my bag, but it looks lovely - well done Airfix Be patient Jamie I am sure you shall return to Telford one year.
Best reaction video on the Lysander that I have watched so far, Jamie. Canadian Spitfire pilot, Dave Hadfield has three videos of Lysander, '416' that are worth a watch. We should not mind the wait for new kit subjects as it gives time for improvements in design/manufacturing and the excitement in the anticipation. The only subject that I find a little odd in waiting this long for is a updated or a new tool; 1/32 Tamiya F-4E, EJ. Despite having two E nose spare sprue parts to convert J kits, I have made a silicone mold for casting noses, 4 to date. It appears that Tamiya are focused on 1/48.
Hi Jamie, hope you're well. Airfix have had a fantastic week, with the Bristol Superfreighter Vintage classic earlier and now today's news! I'm more inclined to but this Sea King version than the first release, and I think this one looks incredible with 4 fantastic versions! The Lysander however is absolutely wonderful news! Looks a beautifully detailed model, which will hopefully go together well (the new tooled stuff generally does) and it opens up more versions as you said. I really hope people will give Airfix bashing a rest for a while now! Getting a bit fed up with all the negativity surrounding them lately. We want this, why don't they do that?! Give me a break!! Get a grip! You're never going to like everything, every manufacturer does. I think Airfix do really well considering the restraints they have to operate under or within, etc. I'm really looking forward to next year's releases and the future too. Look forward to your vid later mate! 👍 Hope the 12 (or is it 14!) conversion is going well. Take care 👍👊
1/48 Lysander was pleasant surprise. This one has been missing from the WWII aircraft range and will complement the Tamiya Strock nicely. I did built a Eduard Redbox version many years ago but I am sure that the Airfix kit will be far superior.
Hi jamie, that's fantastic news on both kits. I, for one, will definitely preorder the Lysander. Yes, it's a pity they didn't do a new tool, hampden, but I'm sure it will come in time. Plus, I've preordered the sea king as I really do like the helicopter. cheers, Gary uk 🇬🇧
A 1/48 Sea Harrier in Falklands War markings..they have done a lot of Cold War Fleet Air Arm and RAF aircraft so I think arguably the most famous of that periods jets in 1/48 world be a winner. I know they’ve a got a 1/72 kit but 1/48 would be the way to go. And if as you said they are big on pre war RAF aircraft a 1/48 Fairey Battle would be a good choice.
Pinger, Junglies and I've also heard I think Baggy, what are those nicknames about? 🤨🤔 Definitely need a Sea King! I'm ever so slightly (😉) excited about the Lysander! 😳😲😎
“Pinger” = Anti Submarine Warfare (ASW) as fitted with a sonar which went “Ping”. “Jungly” = Commando which stems from the Malaysian/Borneo days where the helicopters operated in the jungle. “Bagger” = Air Early Warning (AEW) where some older ASW helicopters were stripped and fitted with AEW radar that was mounted externally in a bag. Hope that helps.
Hey Jamie nice video - great releases from Airfix - I’m flying over to Telford in the morning, really looking forward to it, shame you can’t make it buddy, cheers Liam.
I'd sooner have a re-tooled Puma or Super Puma. Much better looking helicopter, and it is used by so many countries, that the after-market will be stressed to meet the demand.
What about some ships?. The Great Lakes Freighters 'Arthur M Anderson' & wonderful yet infamous of the sad disaster 'Edmund Fitzgerald'. No one is doing this. Please give us something more than a Spitfire Airfix, give us these ships x
@@thescalemodellingcafe Rubbish. Bell UH1 helicopters sell ESCI, Revell, Italeri!!! but Airfix have never attempted to tool one. Typically British, like staying with the Spitfires & Hurricanes, sure fire sellers. But not very innovative.
@@thescalemodellingcafe Oh yes, I'd forgotten about. Let's hope they've done their homework and researched the type properly this time. If so, it'll be a beauty. 🤞
The 1/48 Lysander is a must. It's about time some good kits by Airfix. The previous is the Fairy Gannet 1/48 scale. I have neither of these Airfix kits except the 1/32 Matchbox Lysander and 1/48 Dynervector Fairy Gannet that were good for back in the day.🙁🇭🇲🦘✌️👋 From Australia.
@George-pp2hr Hi, George. Yes, the 'Lizzy' is a welcome addition to the range. From the test shots, it looks great. It just doesn't push my buttons presently. If I wanted a 1/48 Lysander, I would have searched out Gavia's offering as I hear that's still a nice kit. I hope you get those kits that you've listed. From a "whingin' pom" in the 'old country'. 😁👍
@markfranks1329 Thanks for your response. Yes I hope I can find them. Airfix is improving but slowly. I'm seeing interesting models but still many great looking Aircraft are missing. But I'm winging from aus land. Thanks.🙂👍🇭🇲🦘✌️👋
@@captainmagenta899 Sure we would prefer 1/72 or 1/35 for diorama potential, but Airfix have some 1/76 (OO) and Revell have 1/87 (HO), and that is also great because you can then get track, buildings, accessories etc easily. Great for youngsters. If Airfix made the engines with a screw on chassis, Hornby could supply screw on replacements with motors. Joined up thinking.
@@thescalemodellingcafe They've already done half the work; they're in financial trouble; their competitors are starting to produce mostly plastic alternatives; and they should be looking to attract new customers. They'll sell. People still buy the Triumph Herald.
Zero intrest in either to be honest....i dont build bigger than 1/72 nor do i build ww2.....and i have 1/72 sea kings already so even a 1/72 version of the sea king is out for me
I would like to see rerelease of all the 1/32 scale figures series. The we're the best back in the 70s and still are today. They are still out there but sellers ask for astronomical prices.

Just wish someone would do these early British aircraft in 1/32 scale.
But not Trumpeter...!
I think its fair to say, That when Airfix ask what would you like to see. The Lysander, in any scale is a very common choice. Its certainly up there on my list, along with a Scout/Wasp.
Would you like a Lysander?
Yes please!
Or...
What would you like to see?
Insert favourite pet project...
Yep, 1/24th! Now that would be a monster
I'm not currently building kits but that Lysander is very nice! I love 1/48 and bigger scales. Two of my favourite builds as a teenager were a 1/48 Tornado and P51 Mustang. I always fancied a 1/24 Spitfire but that never happened. Maybe a project for my upcoming retirement..

I would, build them all!
What about a 1/48 Lockheed Hudson, no company doing it now. Hasn’t been around for a long time. A major WWII player. Been totally forgotten about.

That would be so nice. Now Trumpeter is doing the Battle I doubt Airfix will, but I really hope so.
Sea King "rivets" - Is weathering more important than realism?
Cost is. So much more expensive doing tiny scale raised rivets, I think it's a great compromise.
I'd have loved to have seen the SEAC markings in the box
They will at some stage
That IS a big plane, got up close to the Lysander at Shuttleworth.
I'd love to fly one!
