To be honest Neil, now I've got my B.O.B version any other is fine with me. A D day painted version would look so good next to the Typhoon and A Desert version would also be welcome . I would like to see a version with the B wing which had both MG and Cannon armament, that would be good.

Still hoping one day we may see a Bolton Paul Defiant:smile2:

I saw a Defiant in the UK (at Duxford, I think) and just loved it. A shame they couldn't cut it, but I seem to remember that they gave one German squadron a bit of a dust up.

Yes there is one there mate, lovely looking aircraft. They did indeed cause the Luftwaffe some losses at the start of the B.O.B when Jerries mistook them for Hurricanes and tried bouncing them from behind, but once the secret was out they were in grave danger and suffered as a result. They did however have great success against German bombers as night fighters.

Got to agree I think a Bolton Paul Defiant for the B.O.B would be a great addition! Plus I'm hopeing the next Spitfire we see is for the Desert, my Tomahawk will need something to sit next to!!!
