Quality of Academy's 1/35 Kiowa Black death
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, October 13, 2003 7:21 PM
Hi. I searched google a few times and couldnt find any reviews on this kit. I was wondering if anyone who has built this kit can tell me about the general quality of the kit. General quality meaning how well it fits together, how much clean up ill have to do, seam lines, etc. If this kit is crappy, ill probably buy the 1/35 academy DAP blackhawk.

Pantsless,

Cool name. LOL... I've looked at the Kiowa Warrior kit, but haven't built it. Looks similar in quality to the MRC UH-1C kits, which means there's a bit to clean up, but it should produce a nice model. If you're thinking between that and the DAP, its a no-brainer. GET THE DAP!!!

just my $.02

Dang it. My fears have been confirmed. Apparently, the black death's fit isnt that good. It really isn't a problem as long as I dont look at it too closely, i suppose. I've only built newly engineered 1/35 tamiya tanks so i guess im spoiled. Looks like its blackhawk for me.
