Just because it's Thanksgiving week, we have a bonus pick. In the 1:32 scale from Corgi to go with you Spits and Hurricanes, we have from Historic Aviation for only $19.95:


Battle of Britain Scramble! Vignette



This collection of cast metal, hand painted, 1/32 scale figures depicts one of the countless scrambles that occurred during the Battle of Britain, when "The Few" - the brave pilots who defended British skies - raced to their aircraft to intercept incoming German fighters and bombers. So detailed, this set even includes a phonograph player and a game table with checkers! Makes a perfect companion to a 1/32 scale Spitfire or Hurricane (also available).
