From what I hear. this ought to be a nice kit. I love the major features descriptions though:
Major features:-
"Accurately modeled to detail based on the actual coverage"
So what is the actual coverage?
"Airframe shape faithfully reproduce the actual over the detail"
Huh ?
"Engine nozzle Split parts committed to detail reproduction"
Ok
"Mold of the panel line is reproduced in the delicate and sharp"
So crisp surface detail
"Armed set and Type 90 air-to-air missile AAM-3,99 Expressions air-to-air missile AAM-4"
Missile Expressions, love it
"Zo-so the three set the 610 gallons tank"
What the heck is a Zo-so?
"#305 and can reproduce the squadron in 2013 against competition machine"
Right
"Reproduce and other current of each unit mark and details caution data decals."
So stenciling included.
"Engrish", gotta love it

1/72? Wow! When I read Platz I presumed 144. Hmm this should definitely a kit worth building.

Yes, from what I've been told this ought to be the new standard for 72nd F-15s. Let's hope they do their homework and provide full intakes for once.
I know, nothing on your part of course. I was just poking a little fun is all. I was stationed in Japan for a few years and we would get a kick out of the "Engrish" we would run across commonly.
