To my fellow forum members,
Many moons ago, my grandmother from Japan sent me a Scale Model kit of a P-51 Mustang product from Hasegawa. I think? It could have been a Tamiya, but after some research, I'm positive it's a Hasegawa. Why Hasegawa? I recall that one of the wing panels could be removed to show the 50 cal. guns as well as the amo belt. I also remembered the assembly of the Rolls Royce engine and how it was displayed with the cowling off. This kit was impressive to say the least. Please note, I statrted Scale Model building during a time when Monogram and Revell were the kings of the mountain top, sure there was AMC and a few other obscure names as well. Tamiya and Hasegawa were from another planet as far as I was concerned.
Anyway, I'm jumping way ahead of myself due to my excitement of my current build, the Revell/Monogram P-61 Black Widow, once completed, I'll then turn my attention to this particular project. Do any forum members have any suggestions in regards to another product? ie: Tamiya, GWH, etc.? Please let me know as I'm always open to any and all comments good and or bad!
humbly yours,
Toshi
