Noticed, catching up on the various forums, the new Sptifire's out on the shelfs and eBay 
It was to have been part of an anniversary set, to celebrate 70 years of Spitfires, but with the problems last year it was shelved. Thankfully, Hornby have managed to get things up and running, and with production now in the UK, it's been released.
Some threads on BritModeller.com:

There's also some news on the Canberra in Scale Aircraft Modeller International (SAMi). One of the members on The Unofficial Airfix Modellers forum has posted some scans. It also looks quite promising too.
