I nearly bought the Dragon one a while back for £30, not even knowing this was coming out... glad I passed on it. Will get this instead, yeah it might simpler, but it'll be a quick fun build.. Love the easiness of it, I have the Pe-2 and Tu-2 mid-build...

V.P.

It has the same markings as the 1/48 scale kit. Of course, these actually were on a P-61B but the P-61C at the USAFM in Dayton has these markings to make it look like a wartime bird. The NASM at Udvar-Hazy has a P-61C in more authentic markings.
