1\48 Gannet & Bucc S2B plus maybe a Tigermoth?
1\43 cars look cool too.

The Ferret, as I cabbied one of those, and the Buccaneer for me  . Don't know about the Gannet, it's one heck of an ugly bird  . But, with it's folding wings, it could look rather good and it wouldn't take up so much space  |

The Ferret is going to fly off the shelves imho. .
Nice to see something totally new in the AFV lines , and not a repop.

The Ferret for me. I must concur with Paul H. I think the Ferret will vanish of shelves in a minute.

I do like the look of the Ferret and as Paul H said it’s nice to see Airfix branching out especially if they are going to do a few more underrepresented subjects.

I might have to get two . My vehicle had the turret as it classed as "local security" for Command Troop, but A, B, C and D squadron, HQ Troop Ferrets were open top cruisers  . For Discussion OnlyOh look, a Bonehead Ferret  |

What surprised me about the Ferret when I first saw one in the flesh was just how dinky it was.

The pricing on this looks very sensible too. Might have to pre-order one. AS they have gone to all that bother, it would be churlish not to, don't you think? |

Yes, however I would love it if they would release these in 1/72 scale as well! They always seem to neglect it, unless they are re-popping old HO/OO models from the past......again!
