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.
75-100 bucks on Ebay! They have several...

I have the AMT kit and as I remember it looks nice in the box. A source for the cockpit would be the resin one that came with a special edition of the Monogram B-26, or use the plastic from the Monogram kit in the AMT kit. It's probably a toss up as to which might be the easier build but I wouldn't pay big bucks to get the AMT kit. If anyone is dying for the Monogram kit I could spare one.

Maybe around 2 will find the molds and reissue the kit. They have done several of the contemporary AMT releases such as the Tempest, Corsair, Meteor, and such. :hmm: But eBay prices have gotten ridiculous over the past few years. :nono:
