The molds and fit on this kit are overall really bad. Prepare to fill up a lot of wide gaps and bad molded parts, trim down leaked plastic etc. The design is also not very good with some parts that you have to install too early so that you can only hand paint them after the base paint layer instead of having the option to airbrush them. the exhaust nozzles for example.

There was a molding issue with the tail as it comes with 2 tails, as seen in the instructions. The tail on the mold didn't sit right on the tail. The bottom of the tail was lined up but at the top, there was a bit that was clearly not meant to be there which had to be sanded down.

The decals also didn't match with the sheet numbers. The sheet might have called for 6 of the decal 12 but there were only 4 of them suplied
