Just bought an F-22 kit
Just bought a Hasegawa 1/48 F-22 kit on eBay.
I think this may be my next build after my long hiatus.

Cool! I look forward to seeing your next project.

Thanks Carlos. I look forward to building it.
Got it for $44.99 and free shipping which is a pretty good deal I think.

Re: Just bought an F-22 kit
Has anyone built this kit?
I read a review that said it was excellent other than the overdone details on the fuselage.
The reviewer said they could probably be lightly sanded to make it more realistic so I was wondering if anyone has tried this?

Re: Just bought an F-22 kit
I had purchased two of them on sale from the LHS right as the storm was going on the details, I think. Got them for 23 dollars each. Got cold feet and sold them on EBay about two months later. There are a lot of parts in that kit. You can cut it in half my simply closing the gear and weapons bays!
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!"..
