With the new Airfix 1/48 Buccaneer being a relatively recent kit, new aftermarket products are being developed and released for it on a regular basis. Most recently, Eduard has updated its range to include some photo-etch and mask sets for the new kit, so we’ve updated our book, Building the Airfix Buccaneer S.2C in 1/48 Scale, to include them.
