This is an excellent kit except for one thing: the fit of the fuselage halves is impaired by the front wheel well and the cockpit tub coming into contact. I had to shave each down to get it to fit and even then it was not perfect. If I were building this kit again I would sand down the edges of the wheel well prior to assembly. There are a few other minor gaps which are easily fixed without damaging any detail but the kit goes together extremely well. I'd recommend this kit to anyone willing to patiently make their way through about 320 parts. However if Zoueki Mura or Tamiya were to put out a G, I'd recommend those first.

Thanks for looking,

Richard
