Thanks, Michal, for posting those. I noticed in the copy about the tail and nose cone resin parts for the drop tanks it sounds as though the Barracuda items are made from compressed paper. I meant to say the originals were made from a coated paper, and these resin replacements are meant to simulate the same rough outer texture, whereas the Tamiya kit parts are too smooth. Sorry for any confusion!
Barracuda also has a nice set of cockpit stencils. I have the entire shebang on order.
