Saw this advertised very recently, and couldn't believe the price, for a 1/48th scale kit - £40 ($56 US) in the UK - that's Hasegawa territory.
It does look good though, but for that price, it should be !
 
Saw the reviews for this from Brett Green (an unabashed Tamiya fan) and it looks nice. To me, it's a bit gimicky though with the interchangeable cowl settings. And we DON'T need yet another 109 G-6. I wish SOMEBODY would get a new Spit XIV out there.

Looking forward to see what you do with it though.
 
Small progress tonight. Start gluing subassemblies of the engine and cowling. What can i say the fit is just awesome and full of detail . More progress pics to follow :)
