I have the kit. Yes, us Asians are getting them first. I'm working in Beijing for long term and the local hobby shop here got two of them for about equivalent to 100 bucks. I'm not gonna touch it. Too big (Well over 3 feet long when assembled), takes WAY too long (over north of 100 parts, and that's not including all the vinyl hoses and PE parts) and don't have the time (over 8 different models waiting to be finished plus a new born baby = me have no time for other model). I also wrote a piece on what to watch out for when assemblying this model, but it got misplaced. Will try to find it.
On the Bench: Man, Choices, Choices...Where to start. But trying to close up shop on the Trumpeter F4F-3 (Early) Wildcat.
On the Stash: Trumpeter's TBM-3 Avenger, Revell's C-17, Trumpeter's 1/32 Typhoon, Trumpeter's SBD-3 Dauntless, and waiting for my BR-86 to arrive
In the "Spare Parts" Heap: Dragon's 1/32 P-51D Mustang Early Version (Worst kit I ever saw. Wasted $35 bucks! Ohh Well)!!!
