      Avoid the Revell kit if you can, at least the 1/48 versions.

                  I have that Pola burned-out house — bought it 30+ years ago for a diorama I was building. That never got finished and the now partially disassembled house is still in its box in my hobby room

                      Chris, the Revell 1/48 Tornados are well known for poor fit. There's a build thread of mine on here somewhere, and plenty more around the web.

                      It's for this reason, and because of similar issues with their F-15 that I won't touch a Revell kit again.

                          YES Bob I must admit im not crazy on revel an never have been I if I could afford it would go for tamyai or trumpeter as they are a lot better than they used to be but as im mostly building big r/c warships im out of the swim an don't know about some new kits that's why I went an wasted 50 odd quid on that K/H JAGUAR kit but no more of them

                              Although likely not Scottie's best work, Rasputitsa is still my emotional favorite along with 'Always Time for a Brew'. PaulE
