Hi
Misslabeled as 1/72 this is selling for 12.99 at hobbycraft.
Thought was cheap for a 48th scale tamiya so got one.
Regards
S

That happened to me when I got a Tamiya 1/48 spitfire, priced as a 1/72 kit! Unfortunately, that Harrier is a pig, good luck with the build

Good luck with the build S...it's a cheap kit, but like I said on YouTube, it needs some work to get it looking okay. But, you'll still have fun building it, so don't be too disheartened. Oh, I did forget to mention on YouTube that the cockpit is very basic as well.
Cheers
Martin

Doh!
Just seen Lee's review of the bird....
its not a bargain at this price either... i thought it was good for a 1/48.... (if your looking into this kit, unlike me, do some reseach to see if you really fancy it. Its not your usuall tamiya kit)
But i can work with raised panel lines. Practiced on the airfix lancaster (old mould) and vulcan so should be ok.
And ordered some eduard pe for office
Ill try to post prog...
