What do you fellas know about it? Raised or recessed panel lines etc. etc. It was released in '94 I think.

Have that kit in the stash, can't do photos of sprues tonight as I'm off to work in a few minutes, but will post some tomorrow.

OK, my mistake, I have the really old Esci one. (Just got home from work and checked). It's a lot older than 94, but it maybe the same as the AMT one, as I really don't remember Ertl-Amt's kit. Esci's has extremely fine raised panel lines. If I recall correctly the cowling is a little undersized, basic details, decals for the cockpit details etc. Typical 25 year old kit.
