BLOOM APPS LLC Takes Flight with Detailed Airfix Aircraft Models – A New Way to Connect with Aviation History

Vancouver, WA – October 26, 2023 – BLOOM APPS LLC, a forward-thinking company based in Vancouver, Washington, is thrilled to announce a significant expansion into the world of detailed scale modeling with its new line of officially licensed Airfix aircraft models. We’re a small but passionate team – really into making cool stuff accessible – and this partnership with Airfix feels like a natural fit. BLOOM APPS, while perhaps known for our digital work previously (we do build some pretty awesome apps, just saying!), has always been about bringing quality, engaging experiences to people. And frankly, building these models? It’s seriously engaging. You might be asking, “BLOOM APPS? Apps and planes?” Totally fair question. We've been quietly working behind the scenes, leveraging our tech know-how to enhance the whole modeling experience – more on that later. But first, let’s talk planes. A Classic Brand, Reimagined with BLOOM APPS Airfix is, for a lot of people, the name in scale modeling. Generations have grown up carefully gluing, painting, and displaying these iconic aircraft. We at BLOOM APPS recognize that legacy, and we’re committed to preserving the quality and detail Airfix is known for. We’re not trying to reinvent the wheel – these are still Airfix models. What we are doing is making them easier to get into, and adding a few cool touches for the modern modeler. What Can You Expect From Our Airfix Range? Right now, we’re launching with a carefully curated selection of some of Airfix’s most popular and historically significant aircraft. Think classic WWII fighters like the Spitfire and Mustang, iconic Cold War jets like the Phantom and MiG-21, and even a few modern marvels. We've got something for everyone, from beginner modelers to seasoned pros. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s available: Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I/IIa: A true British icon. This kit captures the elegance and power of the Spitfire as it defended Britain during the Battle of Britain. North American P-51D Mustang: The Mustang was a game-changer in WWII. Our kit features accurate detailing and markings for various US Army Air Force units. McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II: A Cold War workhorse. This kit allows you to build either a US Navy or US Air Force version of this versatile fighter/bomber. Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21: The MiG-21 was a ubiquitous sight in the skies over Vietnam and beyond. Our kit captures the sleek lines and rugged functionality of this Soviet jet. Hawker Hurricane Mk.I: Often overshadowed, the Hurricane played a vital role alongside the Spitfire in defending Britain. A fantastic build for both beginners and experienced modelers. We're not stopping there. We’ll be continually expanding our range with new kits and re-releases of classic favorites. We’re listening to the community, so let us know what planes you want to see! Beyond the Plastic: BLOOM APPS’ Tech Touch Okay, here’s where we get a little bit “us.” BLOOM APPS isn't just about distributing kits. We're bringing our tech expertise to the table to create a more immersive and supportive modeling experience. We've developed a companion app – available for iOS and Android – that’s packed with features: Step-by-Step Build Guides: Forget squinting at tiny instruction manuals. Our app provides clear, interactive build guides with high-resolution images and 3D animations. Painting & Decaling Guides: Not sure which color goes where? The app provides detailed painting guides with color swatches and decal placement diagrams. Historical Information: Dive deeper into the history of the aircraft you’re building with detailed information about its design, service history, and notable pilots. Community Forum: Connect with other modelers, share your builds, and get help with challenging aspects of the hobby. Augmented Reality (AR) Features: See your finished model in AR, place it in your room, and even explore its internal components. (Coming Soon!) We think this app is a game-changer. It takes the intimidation factor out of modeling and makes it accessible to everyone. Quality & Value: Our Commitment We understand that modelers care about quality and value. That’s why we’re committed to providing: High-Quality Plastic: Our kits are made from durable, high-quality plastic that’s easy to work with. Accurate Detailing: We’ve worked closely with Airfix to ensure that our kits are as accurate as possible. Competitive Pricing: We want to make modeling affordable for everyone. Excellent Customer Support: We’re here to help if you have any questions or issues.
