Discovering Airfix figures.

 

I think these came out in 62

So about 60 years ago I started discovering Airfix. The first set in 1960 was the Guards colour party followed by Infantry Combat Group and Germans. I had all the sets as they came out once I was old enough. I am 64. They were designated HO & OO then which I believe is a railway scale. Airfix had produced their first plastic kit, a Spitfire in 1953. Here is an article on these early figure sets.
