>>10167440I'll be fair to Bongs and say modern Airfix is quite nice. I only made their newer 1/48 Spit Mk Ia a year and a half ago but very much enjoyed the experience.
but yeah it's incredible that there are lots of Tamiya kits from the 70s that are still tolerable, some of the ship kits are honestly not great but there are lots of tank and plane kits which are still reboxed to this day, maybe with a sprue changed out, and they still build up quite nicely
kind of makes me regret buying their 2011 Yorktown rebox though, that tooling is from the 70s also. it's in storage right now so I can't check it. I hope the only old piece they kept was the hull...
