A coin or something next to the plane woulda been kinda nice for scale and all...just sayin...

Markings, a PE fret and one new sprue with interior parts are new in the boxing. I would suspect that the external details are not that improved. This was a wooden aircraft so there are just not that much panel lines.

Not a coin but the clutter (revel paint pot) in the back gives a sense of scale.
