Remember it. Never built it.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I built one. Hilarious bouncing and bobbing and making flapping noises. The machine guns recoiling were a cool part.
Thanks,

Somehow I have escaped that one, but I do have an XF-85 and XFY-1!

Re: Nostalgia kit of yesteryears...
All this is new to me. When I was younger and building I only built cars. No trains, planes or boats. So, I never saw any of these cools kits of yesteryear. Since getting back into the hobby a decade or so ago all I've been doing is playing catch up. I do remember these however. And built one.
These older, goofy kits, cars and planes, are pretty cool. But today everyone wants a fortune for them. Too bad. I'd love to do them again, or for the first time.

If you can't fix it with duct tape, you're not using enough duct tape.
