Wow, Japan had these too? I never knew. I have wanted to get one of these, but other models have been a priority first so I still haven't gotten one. Maybe later. I do have enough to build for now and I do want to get more finished.
I'll be watching the dual build with interest gentlemen. Start your engines!

Well, for some ungodly reason, I dug this one out and started it. Going to be a doozey! A lot of butt joints, no real instructions other than "assemble in the numerical order of the arts indicated".....And most of all...no painting call outs for anything inside.
I was getting ready to measure the fuselage windows and cut some masks and I got a good look at the windscreen, nose pieces and the upper and lower turrets. Damn near fell out of my chair laughing. Believe it or not, I found a set of masks for this guy...5 bucks. They are in the mail. Tom, give me a PM with your address....I ordered two.
Oh, there are NO part numbers on the sprues....
Basic interior
And, the space-time continuum opened and one of the control yokes vanished. Yep. was there in place, getting ready to be glued in and poof.....it was gone. So, made another one.
Decals are toast....not sure if I will get some after market or try to reprint these. I do NOT want to try the scheme, though.

There are decals available for that scheme. Just can’t remember where I’ve seen them. Give me a day or two...

And there are some pretty wild schemes, too!

This'll be an interesting build Lyle, I love those Italian WWII paint schemes!

Alright Lyle! Your on a roll now with builds! I confess when working with anything other than 1/32 I usually have plenty of parts fall and disappear in to another dimension

Thanks, Brent! Rolling along on a square tire!
