Okay, good to know. Makes me glad I'm following this so I can see the differences in the two.

Actually it's even older than that - it's the old Matchbox kit repopped by Revell.

Yeah, well it may get "re-popped" alright. For now, it is resting comfortably whilst the other kits see some action. If I can't find some card stock I'll have to make a run to the store or use some Arizona Tea cans.

Sounds like you should use some Smirnoff cans instead.
Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.
