Hot off the press is a newly tooled 1/48 scale Bristol Blenheim on the way for next year.
Airfix has announced a new kit scheduled for a 2018 release, a 1/48 scale Bristol Blenheim Mk.1F. Based on the early CAD images, this is looking like a nicely detailed aircraft, and should prove to be high on a lot of modellers' wish lists.

Yes I too hope they follow up with a Mk IV wonder what else they'll do in 1/48? Is a new tooled B-17 too much to ask?

Hi Tim Thanks for posting the great news! I've been hoping Airfix would tackle the Blenheim for years - I just wish they'd done the Whirlwind before Trumpeter got to it... So, what next in 1:48 from Airfix? A series of Beaufighters? That'd be tasty! All the best Rowan

Now this is a welcome release! Been waiting for years to build a Blenheim in my scale, one that I hope will be as good as all new Airfix moulds have been and equally affordable. Go on Airfix, do spoil us with latter variants also...please!

Rowan, While Tim does an awesome job and very much appreciated, you might want to have a look again at who posted this one. Kevin

Nice one Kevin I've got so used to Tim posting Airfix news before I do, I took it for granted he was the "culprit" this time! All the best Rowan

Hi Kevin I hope it doesn't come down to a head-to-head with Tanmodel... All the best Rowan
