What a bad detailing engine and cockpit!For a 1/32 scale i was expecting more than that.The engine looks like a brick and the dashboard looks like a cardboard that my niece draws circles on it.And the pilot!... god! He looks like a spaghetti man.Maybe for someone who wants to begin in the scale universe, but certainly not a model to be proud of it with the details.Go with another model. You have a lot of choices for a good detailing P-51 on the market.Even if the price is good for a 1/32, put a little bit more.

It doesn't keep up with the newer models, but the price is right an but with a little care it builds into a nice model.

The price for this kit is very reasonable. The original kit was issued by Revell in 1970 as part of their growing 1/32 kit series and sold for $2. It is fairly accurate and builds up nicely with care in assembly. It does require basic modeling knowledge and tools. As with most kits from the era some sanding and putty is needed. It does not have the perfect parts fit or the large number of parts like todays CAD designed kits. I recommend it to beginners to improve their skills and for advanced modelers who no doubt will build it with nostalgia in mind.

Haven't totally finished (see photo) but getting close, finishing the exterior paint before I add the canopy and landing gear. The build has been fairly straight-forward, minor adjustments needed but nothing major. Model was well packaged and all parts were included, instruction clear (however I would suggest that the landing gear and canopy be added after the exterior painting / decals are finished; contrary to the instructions). This model is more than adequate as a basis for a great build; if you put in enough time / effort.
