That will please Nev. He was talking about kit bashing one back in April.

experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Nice, but I'd be real concerned about the strength of the wing to fuselage joint. thats a very small wing root with a whole lot out at the wing tips.

A-model has done larger kits with larger wings. They will probably be made from glassfiber like the An-22 kit

It's funny, I got the new Squadron mailer yesterday, and there's a listing for a 1/72 Il-76 Mainstay, also by A-model, and they only want $314 and change for it.  That's got to be HUGE.

The V-12 was designed to carry mobile nuclear missiles and their Transporter Erector Launchers - so, yeah, its big.

Me wants one, but price?  Previous A Monster kits have been around £150 :(
