I don't know why, but to me all of their kits look over-engineered. They put lots of detail, but the fit is poor.
However this MiG-25 is a very welcome release.


Kind regards, Sven.

The kit isn't necessarily over-engineered, it is just setup for multiple variants, not only the interceptor and trainer that have been shown so far, but also the recce versions.

There are a few curiosities with what they're showing on the test shot, but it is a test shot, so we can hope they'll sort some of those things out before production.
