Thus far, the kit is good. I experienced no fix issues. I foresee this will be an easy build.

You’ll like that kit Tom. I did the Thunderbirds boxing of it quite a few years ago and remember it being a trouble free quick build.

Looking good so far. Those missile bodies should be Light Ghost Gray, not White. White AAMs went away with Jimmy Carter…
