Yes, but the Eduard kit linked is the later Yak-1B with the bubble top canopy. Lilya flew the Yak-1 with the "razorback" style canopy, which AM did as well.

The "ski Yak" is the proper version, but you will need to get replacement decals

or this Eduard boxing of the AM kit

And yes the ski version has all the parts of the original, plus the skis on an extra sprue...

The Eduard kit is what I'm looking for. Although, I thought I read somewhere that it is in fact an Accurate Miniatures molding?

Yes, the Eduard Yak-1 and Yak-1B kits are both AM molds with Eduard PE. The Eduard Yak-3 is their own original molding.

MB has even a figure of her (Famous Pilots of WW2), but those are 1/32. So far Iv seen no figure in 1/48 of her.

Interesting. If only they did a Yak-1 in 1/32 scale (not the resin kit), I'd get it. LOL! The Yak-1 certainly looks to be compared to a Spitfire in size - maybe smaller.
