Dennis, just to be sure you understand, I don’t think this is actually a new release, it’s the old Hobbycraft/Academy kit reboxed with new decals and a bit of PE. The older kit was a good model to begin with. Wolfpack has begun releasing these older Academy molds (which is a good thing). One of the first was a release of the Academy 1/72 PBY5 in early Pacific markings (including the first US aircraft to attack an enemy vessel at Pearl Harbor in December ‘41). Wolfpack does great work though. Can’t wait to see what comes next.

It's hard to tell from the photos provided to date, but Wolfpack seem to have addressed the shape issue with the fuselage window, but not the trailing edge of the rudder. At least the box top and the parts illustration shows a better shaped window - the build up seems to show a rough upper edge to the fuselage cut-out, but we can hope that's a test shot. I've already ordered a kit and hope it fulfills expectations. Otherwise, I'll have another P-35 shelf-sitter.
