Interesting that Eduard have given the SE5 to Revell considering how new it is. I wonder why that was? Annoyingly I just spent quite a bit more than the RRP on these for an Eduard Camel on ebay. Ah well, c'est la vie! Hopefully lots will get built!

 Correct me if I am wrong but the Revell editions of Eduard kits do not contain photoetch parts.

They are 1/48th weekend boxings in Revell boxes.

Are you sure they are Eduard moulds?
Jadlam have pics of the assembled kits and I'd bet a new WNW Halberstadt that they are the old Aurora/ Monogram models (the moulds for which are of course owned by Revell.

Just checked Amazon who have pictures of sprues - certainly look like Eduard layouts.
Think I was wrong about Aurora antecedents - it's just the pics of the Camel struts looked awfully chunky to be y2k mouldings!

Amazon UK have 25% off by the way.

The scalemates site lists them as Eduard
https://www.scalemates.com/kits/1119693-revell-03907-british-s-e-5a

scalemates is great, but basically it's a wiki. even reprobates like me have edited stuff...
