Tamiya are the leaders, looking at this kit, it is easy to see why.
This kits is close to perfection, if it was any more than that, it would fly.

Tamiya is one of the top model making companies in the world, and probably the brand of model maker I purchase the most, next to Hasegawa. This particular model is one that has long been anticipated. The detail and more importantly, the accuracy of this model is perfect! A definite must have – 10 out of 10 on any modellers scale – and highly recommended to me by International IPMS Champion – Wayne Holmes.
Take your time building this model (Mr. Holmes projected about 1 – 3 years to do this model ~ but he is a perfectionist).
Rated this toy 5 stars for fun (to build), 5 stars in educational value, but only 3 stars for durability – as this is a static DISPLAY ONLY model.
Purchased this model because I already have the Spitfire 1Xc, and wanted to complete my collection with the XVIe….

Great detail. Requires high level of model building skill. Instruction manual was well thought out.
