Pit-Road models usually satisfy me; this one still looks good but I gotta pause when the fantail flag mast is so much thicker than the 4.7-inch gun barrels. The “New Equipment Parts” look like a mixed bag.

I know what you mean; Skywave/Pit Road gets so much right, but they still insist on those ridiculously thick flag and jack staffs! They tend to be on target with the bigger stuff, though.
