Great for children
My 5yr old son absolutely loves these kits and vintage aircraft. They are great to build. This one had a piece that was wrong in it. But we where able to overcome it using a well known brand of locking bricks from Denmark. Overall pretty good for children. He wants a Lancaster next, hopefully Airfix expand on these quick builds

Iconic and stunning model.
For something so easy to make, it is so detailed and realistic, representing the great fighter of the RAF. It makes a great gift and a great place to start for younger modellers. A reasonable price too, cannot argue with it.

An attractive model of an iconic aircrft
This is a push-fit model based on the Lego principle. It is cunningly designed in coloured plastic pieces which when assembled give a convincing camouflage finish without any painting. The propeller does tend to fall off as it is just a push-fit in its bearing. This necessitates removal of the engine cowling and reinsertion of the propeller and bearing. There is a risk that the bearing could easily be lost as it is a very small item. I cured this problem by putting a very small dab of glue on the bearing before attaching the propeller (the propeller still rotates freely). There are no guns or gun ports on the model although the box shows a Spitfire with all guns blazing. There are however wheels in the retracted position. It would have been a nice touch to have included a pilot to go in the cockpit. My 5 year old grandson and I assembled the kit in about an hour. He identified each piece and where it should go. I pressed the pieces together as some finger strength is needed to ensure a robust assembly. I stuck the decals on, as they are a bit tricky to get in the right position. There are about 36 parts to assemble in a similar number of steps. The pictorial instructions are generally clear, though the colour printing has a slightly muddy appearance for some reason. This is an attractive model of a beautiful, iconic aircraft at a reasonable price.

A Good Model
Bought this as I wanted to get back into building aircraft construction kits again and wanted to see if I still can. For the money this is a good reintroduction to modelling. Although a snap together kit, some of the parts needed a bit of teasing to fit properly. So that made it a bit of a challenge for a wet Sunday afternoon. The moving parts on the kit move freely enough. The decals look adequate. When finished the model looks quite good, especially for the money.

Good quality
Impressed with the quality of the moulded parts of these kits. They go together easily, clicking in place similar to Lego. It is a decent size as well. No painting required and the finished item looks good. Hope airfix will increase the range of kits in this series. Worth the money.

Apache quick build kit
I built Airfix kits as a kid, using my weekly 'spends' to buy kits. I showed some kits to my grandson, suggesting we give the quick start kits a go, both being Lego fans, as these kits have a Lego build about them.The kits ok, nothing overly special when compared to Lego. I can see the idea Airfix have gone for here, but I can't say he was impressed. When built it looks ok. The decals are difficult to apply and are almost invisible when on, so will leave it before trying another kit.
