Revell 1:48 F-104G (CF-104) 417Sq. Cold Lake, Alberta
A nice kit with a few issues. The instructions want you to join the forward fuselage halves together first, then join the rear halves together and then put the two together as one. Do this and you'll have a whacking great seam to deal [...]

Revell 1/48 Typhoon commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain
