Pfalz D.XII... the belated bird.

This was an excellent plane but entered in service in spring 1918, when the Fokker D.VII was the undisputed queen of the air. Pfalz XII was a sturdy machine with an extraordinary dive capability, but, in summary, no represent any clear advance over the magnificent D.VII.
Unfortunately, arrived too late to the front. This fact, had relegated Pfalz to be a semi unknown aircraft.

The kit is a very good representation of the real one in 1/72 scale, made by a short lived Ukraine company named Toko, now Roden (I think).
