Yup… but the 70s era box art was waaaay better…

Re: What you have you never built in a kit?
My son gave me that exact kit for Christmas 4 years ago. I was excited to receive it until I decided to jump into it a month later. What a piece of crap that one was. Fit is pure crap, lots of flash, I can go on. The moldings definitely showing its age.keavdog wrote: ↑Thu Jun 19, 2025 4:47 pm @Blacksheep214 Tom - P-61 factory sealed 19.99 AND you can get 10 % off.

Revell should have updated the molds for this one.

Is this the kit, Lyle?LyleW wrote: ↑Thu Jun 19, 2025 7:05 am That I want or wanted, to build? (didn't say finished)...Pretty much all I had access to was what the local drug store carried. Mostly Revell, Monogram and some Hawk kits. So, that is what I used my glass soda bottle refunds for.
I'd like to find a normally priced Phantom 1/32 Huey. Did one as a young teen and then shot it up with my trusty BB gun at some later point. I have managed to get many if not most of the kits I would like to build if time were unlimited...but, alas it isn't.
I vaguely remember seeing that one back in the early 70s. Cool subject too!

Re: What you have you never built in a kit?
Yep, that’s the one.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: What you have you never built in a kit?
With my recent purchases, I think I have all the aircraft that I've wanted to build in the stash. There are quite a few Gundam and armor kits that I'd like to do. Also some ships, mainly modern ones.
