Just got back from my local hobby shop and noticed he had a bunch of Airfix 1/72nds. Pup,Spad VII, Spad XIII and Albatros DVa. Kit box said also available,Brisfit.

Although I have a few unbuilt Airfix kits, the only one I have built to date is the SpadVII which took considerable work detailing the engine area and it looks to me like there is too much space between the wings. None the less I was pleased with the result.

What I really would like to know is your opinion of the DVa and the Brisfit kits. I didn't know Airfix made a DVa. Is this a new issue? I think I recall seeing some horror stories about the Brisfit kit but I have an old Renwal Brisfit kit that I have barely started and is nothing to write home about either.
Incidentally, they are selling for $4.25 a kit. You can take a lot of grief at that price.
