Thanks all. I'm going to have a crack at the Eduard reboxing of the Academy P-38 next. Should be interesting to see how the two compare. It will get Thomas Lanphier's markings from the Yamamoto mission.

Eduard has a P-38 kit?! I know you said it's a rebox of the Academy kit but I didn't now they had one out.

Yep....came out a few years ago. They took the Academy mold and created a bunch resin goodies for it, like a cockpit, PE, and canopy masks. It looks sharp in the box. Since they went to all that trouble I'm surprised they don't make their own mold...maybe it's in the plans...

I had also totally forgot that, until I googled Eduard + P-38 and then remembered that I have seen the box some time ago

:shoutout: Great build.

How did you do the seat: PE belts? Or a resin replacement? It is an eyecatcher and it looks very good.
