One of the few Frog kits to have a retractable undercarriage and doors. In fact, some of the
later C2 boxes had a special panel announcing this feature printed on the top. The last issue
used a box common with the Avro Vulcan.

TRADE NOTES
We note that others to follow in this 1/96th scale range are the long awaited “V” bombers, Valiant, Vulcan and Victor, plus the Comet 4.
Though out of scale with the rest of the 1/72nd range, having a common span of about 7 in. the B-47, B-45, B-52 and Lockheed P2V-7 are welcome new additions to the FROG range and with the Boeing 707 shortly to come (1/144th scale, 12 in. span) the series will include a total of 32 different types—all original British mouldings.
Заметки покупателяМы видим, что в этой серии в масштабе 1/96 будут представлены долгожданные бомбардировщики "V", Valiant, Vulcan и Victor, плюс Comet 4. Несмотря на то, что B-47, B-45, B-52 и Lockheed P2V-7 не соответствуют масштабу остальной серии 1/72, имея общий размах около 7 дюймов, они являются долгожданным пополнением серии FROG, а с появлением в скором времени Boeing 707 (масштаб 1/144, размах 12 дюймов) серия будет включать в себя в общей сложности 32 различных типа - все оригинальные британские модели.

TRADE NOTES
Our plastic of the month is the Valiant in FROG'S 1/96th series of 12s. 6d. One or two points on the wing root fitting and undercarriage need care, but the result, with silver overall and red arctic markings for the Canadian Winterisation PR. trials, nose refuelling probe and retractable u/c is self evident in the photos above.
