Not sure how much help I will be on this one Batsaikhan, but it looks like you have two OOB options and a possible conversion.

Trumpeter and Bronco both have a version...as you probably know and then Dragon has the Freedon in there Cyber-Hobby version which I suppose could be converted with little issue.

There are no reviews of any of these kit here on site...at least from what I can find. I think there is a YouTube video review of Trumpy's out there.

While I have note seen the kit and can't really comment how any of these are, I do have the Fort Worth from Bronco and the kit is not to bad at all! I guess I am just offering my opinion judging from what I seen from Bronco!

Best of luck trying to track down some sort of reviews for these!

I picked up the Trumpeter version and it builds up OK. The fact that
each
freaking
tie-down
is a separate Photo-etched piece is ludicrous. Otherwise I don't think there's any real vices to the kit in building. Bow is a little too fat forward, but this may not be a concern to you.
