I don't recall if I built that model. It looks like a fun trip down memory lane.

I didn't build it either, but I remember that it wasn't one of the best, even at the time. Still, I very much appreciate Round 2 reissuing these old kits!

Hmmm...$25 USD ($30CAN) for a crappy, almost 50 yr old kit in an odd scale (1/900), and for which there are no upgrade sets or PE available? Think I'll pass.
