Unfortunately, as the other reviewer stated, this is a poor quality model with very little detail for the size. Be prepared for lots of putty work to smooth out the poor fitting parts. This thing is huge though and I think it'll be worth the effort when it's complete. Putting the wings together requires very awkward clamping. I agree with the other reviewer that this model does not even come close to doing this airplane justice.

This is a big model. I mean big. A lot of plastic but very little detail. It almost looks like foam. To me, this is the most beautiful plane ever built but this kit doesn't do it justice. For the price, I expected more but there aren't that many options out there. So if this is a favorite ship of yours...go ahead. Just be prepared to work on it to make it seem real.

I ordered the kit from amazon but had to return it coz it was lacking in instructions and decal sheet...i can do some scratchbuilding and detailing for the kit coz it's the only 1/72 kit of this kind and i wanted to do a set of 1/72 bombers, commissioned or otherwise. It's unfortunate that the parts lacking from this kit was not replaced........
