Barracuda Studios new resin in November
Typhoon Late Style Mainwheels
1/24th scale
BR24201
Price: $11.95
These new resin mainwheels replace the kit wheels. These new
wheels feature more and crisper hub detail, as well as full tire beading, logos
and data on the tyre sidewalls. There one piece castings avoid fit problems of
multi-part wheels; a simple and quick upgrade for your large scale Tiffie. Late
style wheels were fitted to all Bubbletop Typhoons and all but early production
Cardoor Tiffies.
Typhoon Carburettor Intake Ring
1/24th scale
BR24202
Price: $5.95
This new resin intake ring directly replaces the kit part,
which is well done, but has incorrect spacing between the intake tube and the
outer ring due to mould tooling limitations. Our ring is properly proportioned,
as well as being thinner and more scale looking. A drop fit installation that
will make a nice difference in the finished model. Pattern by Kerry Carlyle. 
Hawker Typhoon Pilot
1/24th scale
BR24208
Sculpted by Mike good
Price: $24.95
Beautifully realized by respected sculptor Mike Good, and
representing a mid to late war RAF fighter or fighter-bomber pilot, this new
figure is a perfect for the new Airfix 24th scale Typhoon Mk Ib. Will also work
for the Mosquito or later Mark Spitfires as well.
Blenheim Intake
and Exhaust set
1/72nd scale
BR72196
This set consists of accurate and detailed standard and
desert carburettor intakes, ram air oil cooler intakes, exhaust stacks, fuel
dumps and venturi, all of which are hollowed out. Designed as a drop fit replacement
for the Airfix Blenheim Mk I and IV kit parts. Will also work for
other kits of all marks.
Bristol Blenheim
Mainwheels
1/72nd scale
BR72057
Accurate, detailed resin mainwheels replace undersized kit
parts for the new 1/72 Airfix Blenheim Mk I and IV. These wheels were designed
from photos and dimensions taken off surviving mainwheels and include raised
logos on both sides. All 1/72 Blenheim kit wheels are both too small and
completely wrong in proportion and detail.
This simple upgrade will make short
work of this problem. Will also work on other kits of all marks.
BAC Lightning
Landing Gear Upgrade
1/72nd scale
BR72209
This set contains a pair of detailed mainwheels with
accurate tread and tire data and a new separate nosewheel with a highly detailed
nosegear leg to replace the simple one piece part in the Airfix Lightning kits.
A simple and easy upgrade.
BAC Lightning
Exhaust Nozzles
1/72nd scale
BR72210
Set consists of a pair of accurate exhaust nozzles with
detailed afterburner petals inside and out. A simple and quick upgrade that
directly replaces the kit parts.
Martin Baker Mk 4
Lightning Ejection seat
(Images pending)
(Images pending)
1/72nd scale
BR72213
This set contains a pair of very detailed Mk 4 BSA ejection
seats, complete with crisply moulded in seat and parachute harness. This may
well be the most accurate and detailed 72nd Mk 4 seat. The Mk 4 was fitted to a
large number of aircraft, including Mirage, Canberra, late Hunters, Sea Venom,
Sea Vixen, Scimitar, Strikemaster, Provost and others.
