Matchbox – PK-2 – Spitfire Mk.IX

Description:

Spitfire Mk.IX

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a British WWII fighter aircraft Supermarine Spitfire.

Mathbox tooled this kit in 1972, as part of the initial batch of the company, as expected for a mainstream brand as it was and considering Spitfires are one of the principal modelling subjects, only beaten by the German Messerschmitt Bf 109.

Till the late 80s, kit had always the same content, including two RAF markings, one of them for the RAF 306 Polish Squadron.

In 1989 Matchbox updated the kit and released Matchbox – PK-50 (40050) – Spitfire Mk.XVI/IX, the PK-2 kit was then gone.
