Hey, Guys,
Anyone have any feedback on the Academy 1/48 B-25G kit? A friend is in Korea on biz and found a few for ~$30ish/kit. Worth it? Major issues with the kit/build?
Thanks,
Dale
 
Well worth it - it's a re-boxing of the superb Accurate Miniatures kit!
In the UK, it's around £25+, so about US $37+, and when it was released by AM it was well over £30.
 
You're welcome. When you get them, could you please let me know if the kit has an alternative 'glass' nose, or, if not, post a pic of either the instructions or parts, showing the break-down of how the nose goes together?
EDIT: Cancel the last bit - the kit includes the parts for the 'glass' nose.

Hey, 'frames,
Still need the instruction scan? I would be more than happy to do so once I have the kit in my grubby hands.

No, it's ok thanks Dale. I was just wondering if a B-25C (Mitchell II) could be built from the kit, and the answer is yes. But I've since found an Italeri (re-boxed Accurate Miniatures) B-24C/D at a good price, so problem solved.
 
I saw it a few weeks ago. If I did not have 3 other B-25 to build I would have brought it home.
