Well the instruction sheet sure looks nice...

The sprues with the engine parts are duplicated, so there are 2-3 more.

Seen this kit on a few forums now - it looks to be really nice.

I'd better finish my DC-3 first though

I've already seen the actual kit at the IPMS Nationals in Columbus. They had it all laid out. I can't wait to get me one of these....
