I picked up some decals online at a steal. But I was just wondering if ICM P-51 kits are worth it? In particular, their "D" model kit.

I've built a couple ICM kits and they were terrible for the most part, but I have heard conflicting stories about their Mustang kits.

Also, What about Fujimi? Haven't built any of their kits, so I'm unsure about them as well.

Thanks for your advice,

Chip,

Nothing from actual experience, but this got posted on Modeling Madness this AM:

YMMV

I built a ICM P-51 "Ridge Runner" a couple of years ago and while I can't remember too much about it, I do remember it being a bit of a pain. It ended up with a huge step from the wing root to the upper wing surface (you could see into the wing through the step), and I remember the cowling being overall too large for the fuselage it was to be attached to. I also remember the molding being a bit soft and the cockpit was a bit of a pain to fit into the fuselage above the rear radiator exhaust.

Other than that it wasn't too bad for the money.
