I have a part started one of them, it's typical Hasegawa, no weapons supplied and very fiddly in places.

I did read a few reviews and all said it's the best 1/72 kit available and that the parts fit well but, by the way that the kit is molded makes me believe it will require attention when joining the fuselage parts and also that gun port seems like a potential spot for trouble if not careful.
The weapons aren't a problem, i have enough weapons sets and spare missiles for a full squadron of F-104s.. ;D
What it does have that's important for me is a full set of missile launchers, including the ones for the AIM-7 Sparrow.
This will be the built as a PoAF bird, modernized to a standard similar to the Italian F-104S ASA-M and that's why the launchers are needed.

One look at that Ambulance kit and I'm gasping for an ice cold beer.

Dare I ask how much that haul cost you?

Have you bought a small model shop and are introducing us to its contents a bit at a time?  :unsure:

Indeed, are there ANY model kits left in any Berlin model shop now?  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

That's terrible, but it keeps on happening of course.
