Greatest Airplane Model Ever. Border Models 1/32 Lancaster with full interior ( First look preview )

[@kurtahrens]

Absolutely stunning. I have never before seen this level of detail in a kit. Now let's hope they'll do a B-17 with this same level of detail and accuracy.

[@robertjensen1438]

For 600 dollars it better be good

Our museum the Canadian Aviation Museum here in Windsor Ont is in the progess of restoring a Lancaster that was on a pedestal in a city park for 40+ years. It is currently in several large parts and the cockpit and navigation area is restored to WW2 status. We are open Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 10am to 3 pm. I'm sure there are lots of detail that were missed that you can take pictures of. Thanks Andy for all your reviews abd builds

OMG! It’s only fitting that the greatest aeroplane ever gets turned into the greatest model ever! A fitting tribute to the thousands of young men who flew these magnificent machines and paid the ultimate price.

[@FacelessMan777]

The greatest airplane ever is the Lockheed C-130. It is such a great airplane, it was first built 58 years ago and it is still being built today. It can carry the groceries, flying global and tactical airlift missions, flying down and dirty when need be or flying across the oceans to far away lands. It is used to fly into and survey hurricanes and typhoons. It is used as an ABCCC aircraft. It is the one airplane the United States has been using to resupply Antarctica. It is one of the primary aircraft for close in precision airdrop missions. It is one of the best airborne firefighting platforms. It may be the best close air support platforms in the history of CAS missions as the AC-130. It is the platform used to snag satellites returning from orbit. It even landed and took off from an aircraft carrier without use of arresting gear or cat-launch. It can take-off and land on rutted dirt fields less than 3000' in length. It was used as a bomber in Vietnam, dropping the BLU-82. But most importantly, it has two bunks, a galley and a honey bucket for the unfortunate souls who have to shit en route. Our rule was, if crew only on board, who ever uses the honey-bucket first, has to dump it, no matter if it was an officer or enlisted.

Amazing detail, but over £600 here in the UK!

[@petehall889]

An incredibly detailed kit. I made dozens of plastic aircraft kits in my youth. I made a large Airfix kit of a Lancaster around 50 years ago, but this one is magnificent! My father was an RAF heavy bomber pilot during WW2, his second tour of operations was flying Lancasters. He said the Lanc handled beautifully and those four wonderful Rolls-Royce Merlin engines always brought him safely home, along with his crew, albeit often with extra ventilation from flak and nightfighters. I'd love to make this model, but my hands won't allow it now - very frustrating, but that's life!

[@darrinrice367]

BOY! Talk about setting the bar HIGH! I've been in and out of modeling since the 1970's and seen all kinds of stuff, but this kit -- WOW! I dunno whether I'd even tackle it until I really had my chops. There's SO much excellent detail here, SO much to just be painstaking and exact with so as not to screw it up. I think successfully and beautifully executing this build ought to well-qualify anybody to consider themselves a Master; this is Magnum Opus material, here, in my humble estimation. Thanks for the in-depth tour, Andy; you always find something inspiring, and this is certainly no exception.

[@danielnolan9904]

That's super cool Andy, thanks for showing us. I'd love to build one, love a Lancaster. Unfortunately I can't afford, nor could I finish it to the level a piece of art like this deserves. Oh well, I shall have to live vicariously through others builds!

[@miamijules2149]

Yeah, I just started modeling 5-6 months ago and, without exaggeration, I’ve spent thousands on tools and lights and kits and all sorts of thing-a-majigs and do-dads and widgets. Not saying the hobby is expensive by nature but, in my experience, it ain’t cheap.

[@wwiiinplastic4712]

@@miamijules2149 I'd say on average it is a bit more expensive, but if you factor in cost of living increases over time those kits I paid a couple of dollars for back in 1974 would probably be $30-$40 now, if not a bit more. But this kit is out of my range, and I own HKM's B-17 and B-25, as well as Hobby Boss's B-24. I bought the 17 when they were new so it was still under $300 then, but I do own a Perfect Grade Millennium Falcon which is my most expensive at $340. But $600 is too much for me so hopefully there will still be HKM Lancasters available if I pool together the cash for one at some point. Also not sure I want to start a kit that will likely take me longer than I have years left. It will be easier for my wife to sell kits that still fit in the boxes.

One of the greatest aircraft ever flown, the greatest bomber of wwII

[@markbooth1117]

I would love one, however could never afford one. I have a love of the "Lanc" as my Grandmother helped build both Avro Lancaster's and Manchester's (the 2 engined fore-runner of the Lancaster) at the MetroVicks factory, at Trafford Park, Manchester, here in the UK during the war. I believe she was still at MetroVick's when they started assembly of the Avro Lincoln (the model after the Lancaster, when Lancaster production ended)

[@petehall889]

That's really interesting! My father flew both Manchesters and Lancasters on operations during the war. He loved the Lanc, but those darned R-R Vulture engines on the Manchester were so unreliable that he only completed two successful ops and had to fill in flying Hampdens to complete his first tour. His second tour was all on Lancs. A superb aircraft, which he said was lovely to fly. Your Grandmother did a fine job - Dad always returned with all his crew safe, even if the aircraft looked like the moths had been at it!

[@charleslarson6961]

Wow. Just wow. It probably took less investment to tool up for the original Lancaster than it did for this amazing kit! Wish I could pick one up, but I'm 70 now and wouldn't be able to finish it until I'd be around 110.

[@ZIPPRERZING]

I hear you, I do mostly 1/35th armor and it takes me a month-month and half to finish one, so I figure if I bought this Lancaster I would be good for s year!

Maybe this will give you the incentive to stay alive for another 40 years!

[@petehall889]

I know just what you mean, I'm 71 and used to make a lot of kits, including a large Airfix Lancaster. My father flew all three marks of Lancaster on missions during the war - what a great thing it would have been to have made this kit together. He could have told me all about the aircraft!

Great first look at the parts for an amazing kit. Just a heads up 16:27 this is the bottom rear of the aircraft fuselage. The big hole is for the H2S radar antenna, the three little holes are signalling lights and the rectangular hole is for the tailwheel.

[@Waltkat]

Wow, awesome kit. The amount of detail is incredible. Don't know if I have the skills necessary to do this US$475 model justice though.

[@timorvet1]

The sprue containing the two different types of tail wheels are for both the BI/BIII, or the type 464 (Provisioning) as used by the "Dambusters" which was fitted with the earlier tyre. The anti shimmy version (like the wheel on a shopping trolley) was introduced onto the production line in mid 1943.

[@mafmaf6417]

Another kit that shows how this hobby is really catering to the more than well off. Being a Canadian I am sure this kit would go for around $1000. Even buying it overseas because of the exchange rate will be costly, and no RCAF markings to boot.

[@Vorpal_Wit]

I'm always surprised there aren't more marking varieties included in kits. Decals have to be one of the cheapest aspects of putting a kit into production.

[@mafmaf6417]

@@Vorpal_Wit yes considering the RCAF had No 6 Group in Bomber Command, and we do have 1 of 2 flyable Lancaster's in the world, one of these kit manufacturers would include RCAF markings.

[@armholeeio]

I am sure someone will knock out a appropriate decal sheet to fit your needs

[@michaellemaire5380]

I don't think the hobby is catering to the more than well off. I'm Canadian as well and got mine for $800, paid for through a savings account I have reserved for something just like this to which I auto deposit every pay day. The lack of RCAF markings in my humble opinion, not a game changer at all. There are many affordable kits out there even though inflation has definitely made the hobby pricier in every respect. That being said, there are certain models which will be expensive due to their size and the tooling involved and we cannot expect companies to not recoup their costs and make a profit as well. In anything we do, we must obviously stay within our means or find a way, if possible, to purchase that special kit or kits. Besides the savings account, I also sell on ebay and those proceeds go towards the hobby.

[@mafmaf6417]

$800, Jesus that's more than my mortgage. I personally could not imagine spending that much on a model kit. As far as RCAF markings go, I just figured that as 1 of only 2 flyable Lancs exist in Canada, they could have included them.

This kit used to be from Wingnut,Peter Jackson's (yes, the one from Lord of the Rings) modelbuilding company, that unfortunately went bankrupt. But they had some very awesome detailed WWI planes, I have a couple of those too and live the detailing on them. I just imagine, this Lancaster will outclass ANY 1:32 scale Avro Lancaster out there.

[@soonerlon]

From an old retired KC-135 engineer - the skin deformation that's all over the aircraft is called "oil canning". Like the Lanc, our aircraft had really bad oil canning on the belly skins. What an excellent kit. Too bad they aren't producing a 1/32 KC-135R with MPRS pods.

The bomb load includes the large 4,000lb "Cookie" bomb, which looks basically like a HUGE Oil drum and is on one of the first sprue trees shown. This was a fairly standard load after 1943, 1 "Cookie" and another 2-3000 lbs in smaller (250or 500lb bombs) That exterior piece was not the "top fuselage", but the underside with a (not commonly fitted) belly gun - It included the belly ID lights. They also give you the blanking plate for a Lanc without the Mid-Upper turret. Great options for an amazing kit but at (NZ) $1400.00 -Estimated, based on US price -its a little bit outside my budget. I think I'll just be happy to get a Kotare Models 1/32 Spitfire Mk 1a. (Also a product of some of the Wingnuts team, and due later this year.

[@dusanbolek8004]

I think this will be only introductory price and later the price will drop significantly. It might be a nice model but no plastic kit is worth that much. There is already 1/32 Lancaster on the market costing half of that price. For me the problem is not price though, but sheer impracticality of such monstrous model kit, both building and displaying it.

[@StickTheGlue]

I think it looks really cool but I feel it might go the way of the 1/72 B-36 & B-52 where people buy them because of their coolness but then realise they wouldn't have anywhere to keep them once completed

[@RealDaveWinter]

@@dusanbolek8004 Any price drop sort of depends on how many kits are produced. A smaller run means they're harder to get, which keeps the price up. I have no idea how many they're producing though. Also yes, for 90% of people, the 1/3rd of the cost HKM kit will be more than sufficient. Nobody that will ever see my builds will know that it's missing the stressed skin effect. In fact they won't even know what that is.

[@dusanbolek8004]

@@RealDaveWinter I am not even sure if that stressed skin effect is legit or not. It is hard to see on contemporary WWII photos (quite understandably considering those are generally not all that great quality black and whites) and nowadays museum exhibits are almost eighty years old so their state might no longer represent at that time recently manufactured condition of WWII planes.
