Anybody know if it is worth the powder to blow it to hell? Looks like an MRC/Dragon knock off.

It is not a bad kit and not related to the Academy/MRC kit. It is pretty good overall; not as finely detailed as the Academy kit in some areas, equal to or better details in other areas. It is definitely worth building if you can get one.

Saw one on EvilBay for $20 + $15 shipping. Been looking for one of the academy / MRC "Charlies" ..... two releases have the mini gun and 2.75 rockets .... to do a Seawolves ship. This one looks like it has the Heavy Hog configuration only. Decision time. Grab this and figure out how to get a second mortgage for the after market stuff or be patient and wait for a Academy/MRC one to pop up (and get the second mortgage!)
