Resin is usually discussed as a large-scale affair, and these packages are the counter-argument. Even at 1:72 a cast wheel carries sidewall lettering and a weighted contact patch, an exhaust comes hollow and thin-walled, and underwing stores lose the seam down the middle that styrene always leaves. Complete packages exist for popular subjects such as the Spitfire Mk.Vb and the Bf 109 K-4. As throughout the range, a package fits only the kit named in its title, and at this scale a mismatch is immediately obvious.
The choice of airframes in this scale is effectively limitless, so browse 1:72 aircraft kits for the base model. The cockpit and airframe surface are best finished with the etch from Big Ed 1:72 sets. A summary of the resin packages in all scales is under Big Sin.
