J M I'm just about finished this kit. If you look at my stash you will see a lot of old models. I'm one of those guys who got back into modelling after a long absence. I'm also one of those guys going down memory lane trying to apply my adult modelling skills to kits I did in my youth. This is one I would rather have skipped and done a modern version instead. The working features were fun when I was 10 and I didn't care about detail or gaps. Now those things are just an annoyance. It is turning out much better than the last time I built it but I'm jealous of guys who are picking up new releases and producing outstanding models. Same goes for the Monogram Avenger.
