Good to know. Thanks for the heads up.

It does indeed look fun - certainly the forerunner to that TOW jeep you're building.

I was hoping to find the Academy Dauntless at the show but didn't see one. Definitely will get the Academy kit and build both at the same time and compre the builds.

Got a new bottle of Stynylrez primer and some Bare Metal Foil from Amazon. Won't do that again. The Foil came in an Amazon envelope folded in half. Now parts of the foil are useless because they're wrinkled.

good luck. Over the last 12-18 months, I've sent more than a few e-mails to them about their products - not sticking, etc. Absolutely NO response. .

Yes, you can return it. I’ve returned stuff before on Amazon in the past.

The Korean war HobbyBoss F4U-4 didn't come with any ordinance. These look fiddly but nice.

I was pleased to find this on eBay for a decent price (not 6.00). I'm going to build this for a GB on FSM and it will be my second Monogram for the Mafia build (T-6G being the first) - assuming the godfather approves.

Thanks,
