Summary
Well I wanted a straightforward enjoyable build and I sort of got that. All the extras did add a bit more work to the build but nothing too serious and definitely nothing to put me off. The kit is quite basic and doesn’t have all those extras that you find on new releases such as exposed engines, gun bays and avionics bays but sometimes (well a lot of the time a actually) I prefer to see a plane all buttoned up so you can see its lines. This kit is great for that and it will be interesting to see how Revell’s future A-8 release stacks up against this kit as both in price and detail. Overall I really enjoyed this kit and it did what I wanted it to and a bonus is that it looks great.
