This time, I was
rather quick grabbing a new Trumpeter Swordfish kit assuming that it would
resemble my favorite Tamiya 1/48 kit. In principle, it does.

It looks as if the
dimensions are right and the parts breakdown is familiar. However, in practice,
you would need to modify the parts considerably to make an adequate
representation of the biplane. In particular, flying surfaces and details that
the eye skips on the 1/48 scale, but are glaring plastic chunks on the 1/32
scale.
Recommended only for
the Stringbag fans.
