If the kit were that (and not nearly as compromised), I might consider it.
I should have the Tamiya Aston Martin DBS and McLaren Mercedes SLR 722 review kits on my bench early next week 
Review kits have to be built OOB, so not much room for doing much with that kit other than showing it built as-is. I continue to be completely perplexed as to what Trumpeter is really trying to accomplish with model cars. They still seem to have little clue how to hit any sort of "sweet spot" whatsoever. |
Ah yes, the 1/12th scale GT40 kit that sits in the corner of my room just waiting on me to start... someday. Actually, I really do want to build this thing but I want to do it right, within reason. Meaning, some modification to the kit without all out scratch building everything. Talk of the KA Detail set reminds me that I need to order/pay for mine.
