                        Hi, folks!Smile [:)]
                        Just popped into a local hobby shop today, and they had the new Trumpeter F4U-1D Corsair for 5,000 yen ($43 US). I don't know what that means as far as the rest of the world goes, but it's out here in Japan.

                        I'm waiting for the F4U-4!

                        Forgive me for replying to my own post, but has anyone heard anything about the accuracy and quality of these kits?

                        I haven't heard much yet, Brian, but it has to be leaps and bounds above the old Revell offering. That kit was terrible! Knowing Trumpeter, better invest in a new cockpit.

                        Right on all counts there, Demono!
                        I'm really looking forward to that four-bladed F4U-4!
