Maybe I'm exaggerating a tad. But since the only other is the 40+ Monogram kit. Just maybe

:hmm: I don't know, the ICM Beaufort seems to be really popular, I know at least ten people that have picked one up.

Unless it’s the short wings and tail early model B-26, I’ll pass. I’ve already built the good old Monogram Marauder :tongue:

The Monogram Marauder is one kit that has eluded me. Never owned it or seen one... one day...

AMT also released a 1/48 Marauder around the same time as Monogram’s in the 70’s. According to reviews, the exterior was good, but it had the typical spartan AMT interior of their aircraft models. I would not mind finding one of those and giving it a shot, seeing how there is not much to see inside on the B-26 in usual configuration.
