Tamiya gives you three steel ball bearings for the nose weight- one here and one for each boom. Bit odd- I've never seen that feature before. Course you don't get a detailed gun bay like the vintage Monogram kit. I'm sure there's a resin aftermarket replacement set by now.
Bottom of the central fuselage closed up. I went ahead and cemented it. It does need a little putty but not very much!
