Love the Avenger's. gotta be my favorite WWII plane. 

Which one went together the best? ( least amount of frustration. )

I'm thinking of getting the Hasegawa kit

 Dont worry about the thumbprint, paint it Rust , and call it "Battle Damage"

Thank you Timmy. I would loke to rcommend the Hasegawa kit, but the Academy kit sems to be great too. And there are a lot of after market decals to choose from. If you don't like the Atlantic versions.
