The originals would have included swastikas on all German A/C. In the UK they would anyway.

The only one I spotted here is on the Salamander.

Today's box lids seem to be a mixture of old and new, with the old ones having swastikas erased.

Airfix have recently commissioned a new artist who is much closer to Roy Cross' level than has been evident on some boxes.

Remember the 1/24th scale Stuka box from the 80's? Bloody awful! :grin:

Great stuff thanks! Although I do think nostalgia's a thing of the past. ;)

They were also altered to remove any depiction violence/death. James May brought it up when he met Roy Cross on the Toy Stories TV series.

Sorry for the bad quality.
