Just in time for the USA National competition/show this weekend come a slew of new releases from Barracuda Studios – yet more large scale stuff today – and this time some well received news on the 32d scale Corsair (also for Hellcat) kit improvements…

Barracuda Studios is pleased to announce a sneak preview of some exciting new detail sets for the exquisite 1/32nd scale F4U-1 Corsair just released by Tamiya.

This is just a quick overview of the new sets that will be going on sale next week at the IPMS/USA National Convention in Loveland, Colorado. The sets will also be available for Preorder on the Barracuda Studios website in the next few days. More sets will be coming later in the month.
