Why bother on 'Me-509'?? It was never built, not even as a mock-up and the project was already cancelled at a very early stage when detailed design drawings were not even made.
With most of the Messerschmitt archives destroyed during Allied air raids a lot of detail on that 'Me-509' kit is just speculation. The earlier Me-309 did at least fly as a prototype and I personally would welcome a nice 1:48 kit from the same manufacturer of this type instead of that would-be project!!

Wow.

Some really neat products on display there, and thanks for linking to the show. I'm rather excited about the Halifax!

Yes, it is on the Revell display. Supposedly it is an all-new tool rather than the old Matchbox kit.

And this from the Revell website:

From what little I can gather this is still in progress. I don't know when it will be released, some say December of this year.
