Great Detail

By: Keith I. (Buffalo, NY)

I always liked the look of the inverted gull wing. This kit has great detail for 1/72 scale. Parts are accurate with very little flash. All parts fit nicely. I thought it needed a pilot so I added one.

Awesome kit

By: user98989

This is an awesome kit. It's like Tamiya took the 1/48 molds and just shrunk them. The fit, the detail, everything is almost perfect. Just about anyone will be able to handle this kit.
