Rob Colvin Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 I know it has issues lol.....I was wondering has anyone ever compared the kit to drawings. it seems the rear fuselage (aft of the cockpit) is off.......Were replacement prop blades ever done in plastic (I seem recall some white metal ones were done)? Resin wheels? I have one halfway built on the sod and thought about finishing her up............ Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Bellis Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 There's so much wrong with it that the kit, it is not really worth picking apart in detail. You can if you want, but a turd is a turd no matter where the lumps and bumps are. D B-17 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBBates Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 They started off as a crude copy of the Trumpeter P40B then adding the worst parts of the old Monogram 1/48 P40b (the belly faring that not that bad Trumpeter kit and really bad in shape on the Monogram kit) Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastterry Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 And don't forget about the wings being about twice as thick as they need to be. To use this kit as a paint mule is an insult to all the other paint mules. TRF Martinnfb, zerosystem, D.B. Andrus and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had me going there for a minute until I googled M80. We haven't had fireworks for civilians in Australia for a long time (risk of bush fires, burnt hands, eyes out etc). Anyway the kit would have to be the worst I have had the unfortunate pleasure of wasting my money on and I got it on special (wonder why). Mine went in the recycle bin.
