1/144 Hawker Hunter (Revell) Cockpit Set - RetroWings

Retrowings continues to support 1/144 and has issued another nice little upgrade set for your pleasure.
This time, its another upgrade to the Revell Hawker Hunter kit to boost its sparse cockpit and to add more detail. I think we are getting to the point where you can probably build a whole new Hunter from the parts available from Retrowings and theres nothing wrong in that.

The set comprises of a cockpit tub and ejection seat, with additional references for painting.

VOTE @ Revell.de

Revell Germany has opened a new voting page, collecting ideas from the community (mainly for new kits) and holding a vote on each one. The site is available in German and English (you can switch on the top right of the page). I'm not sure how much influence this will have on Revells future plans but it might be an opportunity to promote 1/144th scale subjects. Feel free to join, add your ideas (in the "About" section) and vote for others.
