That looks really nice, but something looks wrong with the front windshield.

The frames for the centre panel may be a bit thin, compared to the real thing:

I like Kinnetic kits (their SU-33 is superb) but I see nothing here to make me ditch my 20+ years old Hasegawa F-104 kits. I appreciate the 'issue' the Has' kit has with riveted wings, but that's a 2 hours max job with some Mr Surfacer.

The cockpit and other details on this new kit certainly don't seem to be a significant improvement on the Hasegawa kit which builds beautifully.
