Damn....
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Don't feel bad. I've built one and I have another one in the stash.

I’ve been wanting to get the Osprey kit for a long time now. Am curious what Hobby Boss will charge for the kit. My guess around $40 - $50 range...

It’s a large aircraft. Hobby Boss F-111s and Tornados, which are comparable in size, cost twice that much.

It's going to be expensive. The 1/48 A-6 is around $80. Let's just hope that the same designers that did the A-6, are the ones that did the Osprey.

Well there it is. Unless I find it on sale somewhere later. Perhaps around the holiday shopping season. :whistle:
