Will masking be included like the Tomcat and other new releases. On that would you ask if they would start to include them pre-cut. Shaky hands would appreciate it.

The ZM kits are somewhat expensive, so I further expect the Tamiya kit to be expensive. I plan on getting two kits, and possibly three. Still; I would rather seen a line of A4 Skyhawks instead being as you know who seems to have little interest if producing them. The canopy issue means little to me, as there are ways out of this issue (can also be a pain to do). I'm more interested in the hard points and a couple other things. gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
