Didn’t say it was. My point was that a (state) government entity was demanding / requiring a website to implement age verification.

Nice. serious question: does your near vertical display technique (which I like👍) minimize dust settling on the models?

I did see where Kinetic was offering kit decal sheets without the kit, don’t recall if the F-5B kit was one of them. edit: here’s the F-5A https://www.luckymodel.com/scale.aspx?item_no=01-109-48020A and F-5B https://www.luckymodel.com/scale.aspx?item_no=01-109-48021

I have the pre-painted & pre-assembled version, bought it cheap on a coupon at Hobby Lobby many years ago. I display it rotated so the bogus stbd hatch isn’t visible.

My experience ordering from Lucky Models: On August 8th I ordered two kits and selected “Air Mail by Post Office” with a “14-21 day” delivery, paying $45 to ship two kits. On August 19th I received two “Order Shipment Confirmation” emails with tracking links, but the links said the tracking number was not found. On August 21st I received two more “Order Shipment Confirmation” emails with tracking links, but the links still said the tracking number was not found. On August 22nd I received two more “Order Shipment Confirmation” emails with tracking links,

If it’s as (in)accurate as their B-2A kit - I’ll pass.

Perhaps it is a photographic illusion but the Academy kit looks to be smaller than the Hasegawa kit? Is this true?

These pics of the molds are driving my inner M C Escher crazy…..

This reminds me of Christmas when the kids would unwrap their presents, take their shiny new toy out of the box and then just play with the box. 😂

If your plan to persuade someone to do what you want is to berate and insult them, maybe you should consider a career in politics…..

Thanks, I must say the lighting and texture maps are quite convincing.
