Plastic Invasion is an independent publishing team dedicated to bringing history to life through books that inspire. With "Wings Over Britain – A Tribute to the Few", they honour the 85th anniversary of the Battle of Britain.

This richly illustrated book combines wartime images, authentic RAF pilot gear, and a complete photo-guided tutorial for building a 1/48 scale Spitfire Mk. I model.
