Almost four years after the programme was made the James May 1:1 scale Airfix Spitfire is on display at RAF Cosford. James May's Toy Stories was a series of six episodes in which James May strove to capture the imagination of today's children with the toys of his own youth in the sixties and seventies. This Lifesize Spitfire was built in May 2009 by James May, a team of engineers and a group of school children from the nearby Thomas Telford school - in three days. This is the worlds first 1:1 scale Spitfire Airfix kit
