CH-47A Score
Posted by Hercmech on Friday, January 14, 2011 11:01 AM

Last night while visiting my local Hobby Lobby, I came across a Trumpeter 1/72 CH-47A in the clearance section.

I don't typically build helicopters but it was priced at $12 from $32 so I figured it was too good of a deal to pass up. 

Just looking at the kit it looks like it has pretty good detail, has anyone built this kit, and what should I be on the look out for when I get around to doing it?

 

Thanks.

IMHO Trumpeter is of the same quality as that of the older Revell/Monogram kits. Some fit issues from poor engineering but otherwise okay.
