I have seen this beautiful aircraft built on a few forums in the past and have always enjoyed its design.

This is the Trumpeter one from Squadron  Models.

I think it looks AWESOME.

Yea, can’t wait for the universal celebration or screams when it is unboxed for the first time. I’m thinking of sending some Xanax down to Ernie for when he opens his the first time.  
Trumpeters A team or B team?

I know, it's not LS, but are the 1/48 GWH Devastators so bad, that there is so much hype around the Trumpeter kit?

I built the GWH kit. It was,…. Interesting.    I’m expecting the pantograph edition, honestly.  But, like others, if you want it bad, and I do, you’ll do what you gotta do.

I know someone in Ridgeway, SC who might just be asked to do a build review on it, depending on how hideous it actually is. 😬
