This week we have four new sets of fleet scale fighters in our spaceship range; two South African and two PacFed. If we can be entirely candid for a moment, there as much for our benefit as yours, since both the old Petrel and Sea Wasp were tricky to cast so these new moulds will make life easier for us \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The South Africans get a new version of the Petrel and a new model, the Hamerkop, a larger version of which has already appeared in the Squadron Commander<\/a> range.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Pacific Federation meanwhile gets an updated Sea Wasp, plus the new, diminutive Weta light interceptor. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We’ve crammed a lot of detail into these tiny (<10mm long) models - here's a closeup of the Petrel (these are metal castings, not 3D prints).\n\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Each pack contains 12 individual fighter models – we now cast them on sprues as it makes handling easier (for you and us). The carrier packs of both factions have been updated so they now carry a mix of the new models. The fighter stands aren’t included but are available separately<\/a>.<\/p>\n
