Thanks for the tips Guys and Gals -It does seem to be a bit of a strange error on Eduards part though... :what:

Cheers

it was nothing a bit of stretched sprue and filler couldnt handle, but it was in such an odd place to have to sand. For the reputation Eduard kits had, I was not expecting this kind of issue.
You have to remember that the Bf 110 kits came out before Eduard changed their tactics from kits with lots of open panel options to kits that are meant to be modeled closed up. They really made it a point to make better fitting kits while tooling up for the new spitfire.

In my (to be built BoB stash) I've got the Ed 110C (tons of fiddly bits) and Hase Ju 87B, with AirFix Ju 87B for practice/decals.

The old RoG Bf 110G is still a nice kit, too. If you don't mind about a mm too long or short here and there.
A recent build on a German forum.
However,the G was not used during the BoB, it went into production in 1942.

Completely forgot the Cyber Hobby Bf 110D. Great fit and no nacelle-hazzel.
Cheers,
