Spitfire Mk.II
for IBG kits

Eduard, 1/72 scale

Reviewed by Graham Carter

Designed for the vaunted new IBG kit, two frets are provided in the usual clear resealable plastic sleeve with card inserts to avoid damage to the frets.

One fret covers the cockpit interior and is partly colour printed for various items such as the instrument panels and seat belts and rear frame, as well as levers, pedals and all manner of bits and bobs that should test your gluing and tweezer skills. The final cockpit interior should look wonderful in the end.

The super-detailer is also catered for with a choice of radios to fit into the rear fuselage should you desire. These are provided with an etched frame to sit in but there are no instructions to show how to fit them  ( I presume these replace kit parts?)

The second, and larger, fret contains a few exterior and intake parts but mainly consists of a very comprehensive set of flap interiors which will require a bit of plastic butchery to install but will look amazing when in place. Some dextrous folding will be required and the modeller has to provide a plastic rod.

These two frets will certainly enhance the IBG kits and can probably fit other kits as well. The set come highly recommended to the super-detailer or those of you who just want a bit more detail.

A double-sided A4 sheet of instructions clearly shows the construction and application of the parts but does not include painting details. All of these parts, carefully applied and painted, should really enhance any model you build and many of these parts could be used in other kits.  As such it comes highly recommended.

Thanks to Eduard for the review samples
