You guys are hilarious! Oh, look...it pooped a chute...a poop chute! Building any diorama (I have never biult one) on this monster whould be huge! I wonder how big the Ch-47 is in 1/35? Pretty close to the same size, I'd guess.

Yes. Sexy like Danny Trujillo.

I heard some folks won't build this kit because it's 1/35 and not 1/32. I don't get that... Looks like a real fun build to me. It would be cool if they downsized it to 1/72 eventually for us real estate challenged modelers...

I was looking at a couple of build reviews on this thing. I don't remember on which one, but there was some grousing on that point. I don't do dioramas, so 1/32 or 1/35 doesn't matter to me. It was the subject I wanted. What does that work out to? twenty-seven inches rather than 30?

Would be a great display diorama with it hauling a tank away in the air.

I agree. If the subject is big enougH! I have no idea where I'm going to put this thing.

Y'all must be robbing banks to buy these kits. I'll wait for the 1/72 kit. :whiteflag:
