This is undoubtedly an excellent new release from Airfix for all the reasons explained in the video. Quality of moulding is excellent although there are some obvious mould ejector pin marks on the backs of some parts like the engine cowl doors that will need attention if displaying your model with the doors open (as I will be doing in the full build) Nothing to get excited about and a reasonably quick fix, hence the 4-star rating for quality of the moulding.

From Airfix: Often considered the Luftwaffe’s most important fighter of the Second World War, the Bf109 was designed by Professor Willy Messerschmitt. Its prototype first took to the skies in May 1935, and after outpacing rival designs from Arado, Heinkel and Focke-Wulf it entered service as the Bf109 A-0 in 1937.
This NEW MOULD kit comes packed with 405 parts and five authentic scheme options, offering extensive build choices.
