When its released in January, I for one, will buy one.....or two.....or....
JANUARY KITS – THE DORA IS COMING!
And believe me, she is in fine form! The kit has many interesting features, one of which is the rear engine accessories, seen through the bottom when viewed through the landing gear well open roof, as well as in the upper view through the open machine gun hatch – if left open, although this can easily be built in the closed position. I have no doubt that some guys will cry 'over-engineered', but after seeing the test shots, I have no reason to believe that this kit doesn't benefit immensely from this feature. Another area I like is the tail, with five various types of riveting, one among them represented as positive rivets. But I need to leave myself something to write about in next month's newsletter! Check out the marking schemes. As I said above, a lot of thought and research went into them, and they should satisfy every modeling connoisseur.
