AMT/Airfix Eagle transporter
I picked this kit up at a show the other week for a fiver,it was part built and required taking apart and tidying up before rebuilding and painting but I think it turned out O.K.

The kit is pretty good, the plastic is very soft though. Plenty of flash and my kit had been attacked [...]
AMT 1:48 scale P-40F, "Warhawk"
Another P-40 model, and this one is NOT built OOB like the previous builds.
The basic kit isn't bad, but it isn't one of those, "I gotta build it" kits like Hasegawa or Tamiya. However, I you want to build an 'F' or an 'L' model [...]

It is a 1/48 scale AMT/ERTL F7F-3 Tigercat mostly out of the box,and [...]
