                        Well I asked my wife if she would like to join the Powderpuff GB and she leaped at the chance.She has decided to build an Apache.But the only Apache I have built was the Revell 1/32 'Birds of Prey' series many years ago.And it wasn't that easy IIRC.Can you guys recommend an Apache in the above scales that won't break her will the first time around? Thanks for the input!

                        Zone,

                        Unfortunately, the Revell kit is the best available in that scale range.  The Kangnam/Imex 1:35th kit is a piece of junk and completely worthless as a representation of the AH-64.  The Revell kit is a great kit, but has some fit issues.  It builds up to a great representation of an early AH-64, but needs quite a bit of scratchbuilding to make it accurate for a current Alpha.  If she's willing to go down in scale a bit, the Hasegawa 48th kits are really the best option out there.


                        HTH
