Ah, what a shame; they followed "SOL's" approach to the shallow cockpit issue; neglected to address it! The resin cockpit tub looks just as shallow as the kit's.
So much for trumping Neomega's 2 seat Flanker cockpit; ditto the Aires Flanker wheel wells.

It'll be interesting to see how the rest of the parts pan out. I've hoping someone will retool all new Flanker and MiG-29 wheels and not just re-pop the kit wheels with added detail.
