The pin-up girl certainly looks better on the box art than it does on the decal sheet!

The PE is ripped away from the Eduard set for the UH-1C, the decals are mediocre. Fireball Model Works has significantly BETTER markings for this model kit. Late this week Cobra Company will release it's final upgrade for this kit series, a drive line set to include new main blades and rotor head, a transmisson with accessories and a correct tail rotor with 90deg gearbox.

It is a re-issue of the Panda kit with new decals, a bunch of nice PE, and the Dragon Vietnam Helo crew figures.  It looks like the new PE will really dress it up.  Here is a review post with lots of info and pics.

Is this a re-issue of the panda kit or is it new tooling? Thanks
