Hi,
It's a reissue of the old Monogram kit....I've seen it for as low as 18.00, and as high as 45.00 (!). It's a nice kit with a bit of work. Go for it!!

Yep built this

A very nice kit, the cockpit is well detailed, no need for any aftermarket resin, although there is a set available.
The only real problem is the rear stays, on the undercarriage. They seem a bit to long.

I built mine and loved it. Fell together well. Did do the aftermarket cockpit, just for fun. Will be doing a few in the future also.
