The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. The set is simple to use and the 2 pages of
instructions are very clear. Be aware some of the parts are very delicate,
so be very gentle with them.
I've always had a huge
fascination with the Mistel concept. One of my favourites is the Version 1
as it used the BF-109, which is my favourite piston engined Luftwaffe fighter
from WW2. This set is complete and will be much appreciated by modellers
interested in adding a Mistel Version 1 to their display case.
You can purchase this and other
fine resin detail items directly from Aires
or from the many retailers that carry their products. A list of some of
those retailers can be found here.
