All 3 kits are rather basic, the Heller being the best of the trio. Modified the cockpits and seats of all three, especially the Matchbox and Airfix kits. All three needed intakes modifications as they either are flush with the fuselage or incorrectly shaped. The Libyan is a Mirage 5 modified from the Heller 5BA kit, the Matchbox is a South African IIIBZ while the Airfix is an Armee del Aire IIIC. We really need a new kit in 1/72nd scale of this very important aircraft!!

Re: 1/72nd Mirages
I see a very nice and well stocked HIS 2011. There are a couple of new modellers who have absolutely great stuff and I really don;t know where these guys have been hiding all this time.

I'm not into aircraft, but still impressed with the clean finish of these gems.
