After almost vanishing from the scene, Hobbycraft Canada makes a splash with their return: A completely retolled Avro Arrow in 1/72.

If only they would retool their Spitfire Mk XIV. DACO made a correction to the tail, then came Academy, and DACO made a new nose. Better if they had simply made a total retool of both sets.

But Hobbycraft back may not be a bad idea.

This is great news, I just might have to build one of these, or at least add it to the growing build queue(otherwise known as my stash).

There's a thread on the ARC discussion forum where an Arrow expert shares his opinions of this kit. He discusses where Hobbycraft finally got it right, and where there are still some warts showing.
