Not really a whif, but...  :rolleyes:
It's actually a DIY kit!
Lovely P-51, completing the Mustang family! Thanks!

Saw this rather awesome VF-1 maintenance dio browsing Pintrest this evening:

Any idea or indication which kit this is? It's a VF-1D two seater, and AFAIK this should be the 1:72 Hasegawa kit (since there's no bigger D kit around). That's impressive.

Nope.  It could also be the Bandai 1/72 VF-1D variable kit.  I've got one of those lurking in my stash.

 :wub: I love this what-if plane, found on the Web:

It is featuring the Renault 5 car, and in 1972-75 when I was 8-11 year old I thought "this lovely car will be mine when I grow up!" ;D

Love the Mustang pedal car!  :thumbsup:

I really, like that. I would certainly bankrupt myself to buy a 1/72nd scale one of those.

Yes, very smart. It's got a bit of 'rounded off' Convair Kingfish about it me thinks.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
