I only learned about Alaska and Guam a few years ago. This looks like a cool model.

Part count seems low but when you add a PE set that will probably double it. Comes with a good amount of PE. Looking forward to seeing it.

I retract my statement on low plastic part count. I thought the photos showed all the parts. 1150 parts!! Wow. Can't wait to get this one.
