Just received my kit today. Tried ordering it from Hobby Linc but it went OOS about two seconds after I ordered. Then was strolling through Squadron and they had one; ordered and delivered in two days. Wow!
At first glance, it looks as nicely detailed as the Monogram kit. Differences(again at first glance)include engraved panel lines, PE for the seat, extended rails for the missiles, no gun option, no early canopy(I'm going to pull out one of my Monogram kits and see if their early canopy will fit because Trumpeter molded their canopy the same way with the glass separate) two Genie's(the Six only carried one)and I also noticed on the Falcon missiles two of them have the clear nose for an IR version and the other two have solid (radar guided?) noses. Oh, and the cockpit instrumentation is the later "tape" version, so this would be gun compatible if you could build the gun part.
Looks like a winner and since the kit doesn't come with a pre-refueling capability spine, I'm thinking the lack of the early canopy may not be that big a deal if you're into the later versions. I am in that category BUT I'd love to build the "Cornfield Bomber" from the 71st FIS.
