It’s coming. Low over the treetops… but it’s coming.
June 6th marks the launch of the Airscale Pro Kits 1/32 Hawker Typhoon Bubbletop Bundle — a date forever tied to the Typhoon’s devastating role over Normandy after D-Day.
The bundle includes the original Car-Door kit plus a full conversion set to build the feared late Bubbletop variant.
From launch, the kit is armed with 8 RP3 rockets as standard.
But all pre-orders placed before June 6th will also receive an exclusive bonus pack of 44 Gallon wing tanks — available only during the pre-order period.
The upgrade pack includes:
- New sidewalls and door infills
- New Exhausts
- New 'Cuckcoo Clock' Radiator & Dust Filter
- New Windshield & Blown Canopy (From DBMK Sea Fury)
- New rear deck parts
- New Gunsight mount
- 8RP3 Rockets & Rails
- 44 gallon external fuel tanks (exclusive to original & pre-order customers)
- No new decals or masks are included, these will need to be sourced separately
The conversion requires minor surgery to the kit around the windscreen area in order to fit the windshield. This is straightforward work and well within the skills required to build the base kit, but it is a true conversion rather than a drop-in option and will require some careful cutting and fitting.
You can pre-order this kit over at Airscale.
