Victor Bomber Dio Query

[Cobra]

Hey Guys, just a Bit Curious, has Anyone Built a Diorama Featuring the Victor Bomber? just Curious because I'm Not Sure if i've Seen a Dio Featuring the Victor   Also, Can Anyone tell if there are Any Victor Bomber Models Available?  Thinking i'd like to Build one,but am Unsure What Scale & Who would Offer the Model. May Post an Idea in the Idea Bank. What say You? Thanks for Looking.  Dan

Noy's Miniatures from Israel (a nice guy!) does very good airfield prints on cardboard in various scales:

Some of his offerings also include revetments, but IIRC only at 1:72 scale - but that would work with the Matchbox Victor. There is, IIRC, also a 1:96 kit from Lindberg, and one from FROG - but I am not certain if these are identical? And there's a Great Wall 1:144 kit, plus a 1:144 resin kit from Anigrand.

Or wait about a year for the new Airfix kit. From the resin display model at SMW it will be worth the wait.

There are, but they're different kits. Neither too bad for their age but a FROG one will probably prove expensive these days.

Has recently been done here, as a RN aircraft, IIRC.
