In this latest release from Cutting Edge, we have a colorful mix of 357th Fighter Group P-51 Mustangs to choose from. The group was nicknamed the 'Yoxford Boys' despite the fact that they weren't based at Yoxford. For more about this group's history, click here.

This decal set provides markings for four aircraft:

  • P-51D-20-NA, 44-63221, 362 FS/357 FG, G4-S, 'Moose'
  • P-51B-5-NA, 43-6787, 362 FS/357 FG, G4-O, 'Shanty Irish'
  • P-51D-5-NA, 44-13318, 364 FS/357 FG, C5-N, 'Frenesi'
  • P-51B-7-NA, 43-6935, 364 FS/357 FG, C5-T, 'Hurry Home Honey'

This set will certainly provide some interesting options for your Accurate Miniatures P-51B or Tamiya P-51D kits, especially if you're intimidated by bare metal subjects.

Highly recommended!

My sincere thanks to Meteor Productions for this review sample!
