I finally saw Trumpeter's A-10 at the Arizona IPMS show a couple days ago, really an amazing kit. I've seen so many reviews and pictures, it was good to see it in person. I wasn't going to build it until now, now I may. It was a beautiful desert scheme with all the extra ordinance next to it.

You have a much greater modeling budget than I do, I'd love to build the trumpeter kit and the Academy F-18, but everything just gets more and more expensive, everyday it seems! I hope your kit turns out well.

Well, not to brag.. but I won mine in the club raffle for a $5 investment a year or so back.

Now I need a HOUSE - still living w wife and 4yr old in apt.- to have room to build and display it.
So mine will sit for a while still. But, of course, I DO intend to build it.
Maybe there will be a set of decals for that female pilot over Bagdad by then as well.

The nice thing about winning it is that spending the $$ for aftermarket is not so painful!

I'd really like to see that decal set in 1/32 also. You need TWO houses, one for just modeling, maybe I'll start playing raffles more often too!

I just saw the real beast today at the Quebec city air show and I want to built the Trumpeter 1:32....

Someone can give me the dimensions of this kit?

Also, someone knows if the Black box cockpit resin set is a good one?

Thanks for your informations.
