Connecticut ANG here we come! Just need a Master Details Deuce A/B mod, plus nose and drop tank inserts and, of course, the right decals. 

 

Interesting that the specs indicate an etch sheet for seat harnesses, vinyl tyres, plastic-only landing legs, and 7 sprues fewer than the F-100D kit. Guessing they've ditched the unnecessary engine and trolley (or it's a typo, ditto with around 240 fewer parts). 

 

Great news after a very long wait,

Looking forward to a kit review. For me, the only truly noticeable error, externally, was the wrong shape of the engine air intake. I hope I'm wrong, but I suspect that hasn't been corrected on either the F-100C or the F-100F. If it has, I have to wonder if it'll be corrected on the F-100D kit as well.

Zacto, AMS and Renaissance all make nasal corrective parts and the last two make plugs to lengthen the drop tanks.

I'm transferring the Master Details Deuce burner from my unbuilt D (which will be Armée de L'Air) to my intended CT ANG F.

 

Res Kit hopefully will make some nice wheels and Eduard will inevitably provide cockpit placards that look more realistic than the Trumpeter bubblegum machine versions. 

 

I just hope Trumpeter have retained the angled AAR probe and the SUU-21/A practice bomb pods. The stores options appear to be an 87 jammer, rocket pods and Sidewinder Bs.

AMS do the only correct diameter wheels - others are too large and people shorten the gear  legs to get the sit right- nothing wrong with the kit legs!!
