There are three things I can't stress enough to anyone that wants to build this kit. First, dry fitting is essential! The kit's engineering doesn't seem problematic at first, but it will be a huge challenge. In fact, I actually wish I had put it together quickly with Elmer's or other water soluble glue before I cleaned up or painted any parts. Once I understood how everything fit together I would then drop it in water to dissolve the glue and then clean up/paint parts and start building it properly. Second, some parts will need a LOT of work to clean up properly, and it won't be easy either. There's flash, molds that weren't lined up properly, warped body parts, sink marks, and horrible sprue joins. Lastly (and related to dry fitting), it will be incredibly difficult to use the kit's pilot because you'll have to glue his arms into place long before you'll know whether they'll actually line up with the controls - you basically have to glue the fuselage together in order to find out whether long before arms and yoke line up.

Also beware that the cockpit ceiling and the back wall will also have big seam lines that the kit's engineering makes very difficult to address.

Can the wheel bay and engine mask plugs be used over and over again?

It's the first time I'm using them, so I'm not sure. I would think so, but we'll find out soon enough I suppose. 😉
