As you can see the decals are damaged, but I'm thinking of getting better ones anyway. Also thinking of re-scribing it all as it's raised panel lines

I love these old Monogram kits.Lots of detail for not a lot of money.A few problems with parts fit,but that's part of the fun for me.Will be watching this one come together.

Ive been waiting to see this one Ian. Like dave I love the later monogram kits , a lot of them were excellently detailed for their time and can still hold their head up today. I reckon the decals should be ok , I like the look of the big red lightning flash! cheers tony

Going to start by re-scribing it all

A lot of internal detailing for an old kit, looking forward to seeing the build on this!

I echo the comments above re - Monogram. I've only ever built one Mono kit (ok a flippin' big one) but was surprised at the detail, not bad for an old kit.

Took a couple of evenings but got it all re-scribed
