5.0 out of 5 stars Great kit, a bargain.
Not made yet so this is a brief in box review. So far It looks great, the the sprue sections are individually wrapped, the moulding detail is crisp with no flashing. cockpit detail is good. The nose section guns are there if you want to make the kit with those panels off. The decals look good and are appropriately minimal (Given this stage in the war)-but no swastika for the tail rudder (Like many other manufacturers they don't include them now) Metal alloy mould for front undercarriage housing as a counter weight for wheels down display.Am very impressed with this level of kit for the price.
3.0 out of 5 stars Nightmare Kit
Cheap kit and not hard to understand why. Trouble with a few parts fitting together, had to break out the big guns, Tamiya Putty and Plasticard to refashion and fix the affected parts. On the upside, if you can work past this the kit is brilliantly detailed, no flash and is a pleasure to paint
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent buy
For price I paid , the kit has a lot of detail and i'am very impressed . The model kit fits very well together , I will now buy other kits by the same make .
4.0 out of 5 stars Could be the next Trumpeter........ One day!
With a little more thought and better grade of plastic,Hobby Boss could be the next Trumpeter.These 1/48th scale kits are dirt cheap and worth every penny but can be a bit of a challenge at times due to their unique engineering.
