                        Hey! That's not brand new! I thought you said I was buyin' a brand new Falke?!?! That one's got lots of paint chipped off it!


                        Seriously, tho, great job, Robb! I especially like those paint chipped areas. Looks like real weathering in some fairly common areas.

                        Great job Robb! Trust me folks, it looks even better in person. So many details - you see something new each time you look at it. I especially like the maintenance manual in the cockpit!

                        The maintenace manual is something of a joke. It's the directions for the kit reduce to 1:20 scale.

                        I don't have a clue what it is, where it came from, or annything about it, but you have some freakin awesome skills. I don't think I could even begin to think about where to start with the detail you added. Quite an impressive craft.

                        It's Maschinen Krueger, the closest thing to a cult in scifi modeling. Invented by Kow Yokoyama back in the '80s.

                        That is just awesome! All that detail really makes it pop.

                        My take... I hope they stick with the 1:20 format. I hope they stay true to form.

                         

                        And I hope to buy a case of them.
