  1. Stanley Alton Brackett

    Be careful if you need to scrape or sand. A lot of the plastic is pretty thin.

  2. Lord Colin Pescott

    Amazing amount of detail. Sadly very poor casting ruined the ability to assemble in the way it was designed to be built.

  3. DJDad

    A nice model in a scale that is becoming more popular. Probably better for the more experienced modellers. It doesn’t have as many locator pins and other assembly aids as other manufacturers, also the thinner plastic moulding and flash makes for a more challenging build. However the addition of ground crew and other figures along with tools and benches etc makes for a very good value kit which will challenge most model makers.

  4. Stanley Alton Brackett

    This kit has both pros and cons. Being the first ICM model that I have bought, it definitely is different. The instructions are very small and crowded. Too many steps per sketch. Some parts had to be trimmed, and some filler was necessary. The figures included are quite nice. All in all, it makes a nice model, just be prepared to spend time to make it right.

  5. Richard C. Vaughan

    somehow in the description it said it includes the insignia but that didn’t mean the paint too it seems, so now I’m trying to figure out if I should continue building it before I find the right paint and glue for it (yes, there’s no glue either) – meanwhile I went on and ordered one that had the components already painted… further, the very small parts break if not carefully separated from the plastic holding frame… (superglue seems to work to get them back together but experts recommend other glues)

  6. Mad Mac

    Excellent model, great value for money with figures included.

  7. CARLOS MIRANDA

    Bought it because…DIORAMA. Like building a “scene”. Makes the model come alive. Fits in a 1/48 scale display case. Great Detail!

  8. Richard Allen

    A bit tricky to get the fuselage lined up but with patience it can be achieved, lots of detail to the engine and weapons, good choice of figures and a few ground crew accessories, good value for money

  9. Richard Allen

    Do not waste your money and patience. The figures are good.
    The plane is one of the worst I have ever had the misfortune of doing. Parts are badly designed and do not fit well together. The instructions are nasty pure nasty. You might as well wear a blind fold. Pay a bit more for a Tamiya as they really are the best

    good model kit
