Revell claims it's 1/72, which has put me off buying one, although Revell's "scales" are picked by a random number generator in a lot of cases :-[

How do 28mm figures look against it?

Thanks

This is more often true than is preferable  :?

It is pretty big, I did consider swapping the seats out for 1/48 ,however that would mean re-designing the cockpit,and in the end I decided it was too much work,the two side hatches are too low. It can be done,easily ,just requires a bit of kit bashing. It will look good alongside 28mm miniatures anyway  :)

There are quite a few on Amazon just now, so I've taken the plunge. If nothing else it will keep all the other unbuilt kits in the loft company  ;D

Looking good, got my fingers crossed for more pics, especially against some 28mm minis.

Yeah; the only N1 fighters kits still available on Ebay at the moment are a few of the diecast ones in 1/48, and those are way too hard to convert to my liking...  :?

+++EDIT+++ Correction: even those are now gone...  ::)
