Here is a review from Jean-Luc Formery (TedMamere) of Eduard's new Weekend edition of their 1/48 scale F.2B. A kit with nice plastic parts but sadly some misprinted decals.

Agreed Jean-Luc. This something that one would expect from a kit produced in the 1960's. There are a couple of issues with the kit that are minor overall and as you mention it does build up nicely. I hope they can get it right next time. The aftermarket cottage companies may step up with a sheet with various cockades and or serial #s. I am encouraging one such manufacturer to do so.

Are you frequently seen with blood shot eyes from staying up til 3am to get the right colour scheme on your latest WWI model?
