I may pass on the wing fold. They don't come close to fitting. I'll check with the exhausts attached.

Yeah, that was an odd one. It had a T shaped part the would pull out a bit, then rotate 90* so you could then fold the wings to the rear. The Avenger and Revell’s 1/32 Wildcat had a hinge set up that was much more like those on the real aircraft.

I've made a lot of progress on sanding and filling the Prowler. The fuselage and one of the wings are almost done. It's looking a lot better than I expected. A lot of that has to do with using Ammo's sanding sticks. For me they have been a game changer.
