Hi all i bought this kit from our LMS, not a great kit.
Loads of flash and the fit is awful, is this what Smer kits are normally like.

Is it an old kit or a new one poorly done?

I had an old 1/48 Swordfish, which had the roundel position moulded into the fuselage, nasty.. This one and their 1/48 Walrus were old Merit kits, so, proper old!

The original tooling for this kit was done in 1955, has been reboxed down the years into what you have now, still using '55 tooling
