    Looks like a good kit . At 1/24 looks like an opportunity for some great detail. Hope this one works out for you.

                  It looks so beautiful painted. The light blue plastic, on the other hand... Phew, takes some getting used to.

                    The light blue plastic is the original kit from 1973
