I bought this through E-Bay, only to find the kit had already been started, and a couple of key pieces were missing. Fortunately, I was refunded, and the seller let me keep the model.
In order to build it, I had to pour a couple of replacement resin pieces; it cost me more for the resin and casting material than I paid for the kit! Still, in the end, it turned out quite well. Because it was much more work, I think I have a soft spot for this one over the yellow/red Labrador

I want to build the yellow canadian CH-113 on day myself. Nice to see those two beauties sude by side. I read that the Hobbycrab kit is a challenge. I'd appreciate a word or two on how the build was.

Thanks, guys! My favourite CH-113 of the two is the old red, white & blue RCAF version, not for the paint scheme as much as dealing with the missing parts, replacing them with resin cast replicas and finishing the model. Nice thing was - the guy who I bought from on eBay refunded my purchase and let me keep the kit. So the price was certainly right.
