Remember it. Never built it.

I built one. Hilarious bouncing and bobbing and making flapping noises. The machine guns recoiling were a cool part.

Somehow I have escaped that one, but I do have an XF-85 and XFY-1!

All this is new to me. When I was younger and building I only built cars. No trains, planes or boats. So, I never saw any of these cools kits of yesteryear. Since getting back into the hobby a decade or so ago all I've been doing is playing catch up. I do remember these however. And built one.

These older, goofy kits, cars and planes, are pretty cool. But today everyone wants a fortune for them. Too bad. I'd love to do them again, or for the first time.

I remember either my sister or I built one of those Zinger kits. I know I did the CB Freak kit...
