Building one - a funny looking aircraft!

Goes together ok - similar quality to new generation Revell

"Funny-looking"? Maybe in a pitbull sort of way...

Brute force on wings!

I've built the Dynavector Wyvern.

This thing is HUGE.
I once got a 1/72nd scale built model from a friend and I first thought it
was 1/48th!!!

I don't know the Trumpeter, but the Dynavector was a good build (for a vac-
form)

cheers,

Dennis

I built the Frog kit many winters ago. It was around the size of
smaller 1/48 fighters. I found it fascinating but I'm partial to the
weird and wacky in aircraft.

Me too

I love the way the beast looks.
I've got the same kind of fascination for things like the Firebrand or
the rather ugly-engined P-47 versions.
