Got this cheap, prepainted and you have to fit the perspex, wings and sticky out bits. Its Jap and very IXO/Altaya-ish, very nice model..

That's one of the nicer models of its type. I was eying it until IXO put out its version, which is about as good on the detail side and much sturdier. I filled in the wing root gaps on my IXO, which was a big improvement and am eagerly awaiting the announcement by Hachette of its planned ( I assume ) release of a 1:120th scale rendition.

The Big Bird B-24 is also very nice, IMHO.

The picture, below, shows my IXO Emily, on the left, after I filled in the wing root gaps and weathered the model. I'm quite happy with it.
