Review: quality kit at an attractive price given the large scale - Item arrived in good condition.... looking forward to the build
Review: Overpriced but good kit. - It goes together pretty easy. There aren’t a whole lot of parts for this kit. A few confusing instruction illustrations. The wing joints take some patience but that’s it. And now the Decals..I really wish they would have included the actual markings, NOT theoretical. It’s a good kit. I really wish it was cheaper but considering it’s the only one you don’t have options unfortunately
