AIRFIX Vintage Classics A04212V. HMS Belfast. 1/600 scale Plastic Kit

Plastic assembly kit. Requires glues, paint and tools to complete   These “new” Vintage Classics will contain kits from the pre-Hornby era; i.e. those not designed in CAD, and will carry where possible an older classic illustration. The box will include the year that the kit first appeared on the market, plus carry the modern Humbrol colour references.  Therefore these Vintage Classic items will sit alongside the “new era” items and make it far easier to choose the one you want without any confusion on what period of Airfix’s fantastic history it comes from. One of the Town Class Batch 3 cruisers, the Belfast saw action at the Battle of the North Cape in World War II, as well as protecting the Artic convoys and taking a major role during the D-Day landings. After being refitted and seeing action in other conflicts including the Korean War, she is now preserved and anchored in the River Thames near to Tower Bridge in London.   Model Details: Scale:    1/600 Number of parts: 250 Length: 311 mm Beam: 35 mm – Reissue of a classic kit – Mould tools made in 1973.
