The long-awaited Czech variant of the Bf-109 family, the Avia S-199, has finally been released by Eduard. It is the first of the new Hybrid Line of kits. This touts less plastic parts and more resin pieces. One thing that stuck me as funny is there is no photo etch, not because it was needed but considering that Eduard started out as a photo etch company. I found this interesting and shows just how much Eduard has grown since its conception.
