Special Hobby's kit is quite good, albeit of the older type of their kits. With relatively moderate effort it turns out fine. The interior is unexpectedly complete for the scale, but it takes plenty of test fitting to ensure a tight [...]
A very good kit, very rich in detail. Comparing the kit with photos of the real helicopter, the kit gives some extra pieces that I'm not sure if the were to be used, yet other details aren't there at all.

The only issue worth mentioning is the ill fitting of the canopy in the open position. Basically it's as if it was designed to remain closed. It needs [...]

For starters, there are several small and delicate pieces and all of them needed [...]
Hi everybody, first post here with Eduard’s hellcat in 1/48.
