Hi Robert

I've had the same thing with a Tamiya XJ220 kit.
There are several ways to try and fix this, but the method I used involves a hair dryer.
I used a hair drayer to slightly heat the plastic. Be careful not to heat it too much though. By heating the A-pillar slightly it can be bend (carefully) back into the right shape.

You might even try this without heating the A-pillar, but it will be harder to get it back into shape without adding heat.

On the other hand, I don't know how soft the Revell plastic is (I've been told it's quite soft), so maybe it will indeed stay in shape when the window is glued in. But I wouldn't bet on it, if I were you...

Hope this helps.

Good luck in fixing that pillar.
