This 1/32 scale set is available directly from the manufacturer: https://exito.site/en_GB/p/EXITO-DECALS-ED32003-132-Sexy-Spitfires-Supermarine-Spitfire-LF-Mk-Vb-VIII-IXe/56657 Note that 1/48 and 1/72 versions are also available: https://exito.site/en_GB/p/EXITO-DECALS-ED48003-148-Sexy-Spitfires-Supermarine-Spitfire-LF-Mk-Vb-VIII-IXe/49231 https://exito.site/en_GB/p/EXITO-DECALS-ED72003-172-Sexy-Spitfires-Supermarine-Spitfire-LF-Mk-Vb-VIII-IXe/49230 The second 1/32 scale release is entitled “Eastern Front Fighters” and covers three different Messerschmitts flown by notable Luftwaffe aces in the East: - Messerschmitt Bf 109 E-7, ‘White 2’, flown by Lt. Heinrich Ehrler of 4./JG 5, Alakurtti, Finland, late April 1942. - Messerschmitt Bf 109 F-4 trop, WNr. 10266, flown by Maj.
