Nice markings for a Marine A-4M

Yep, always like that one.
One thing seems to be incorrect with the decals though unfortunately...stbd side national flags should be reversed, but are printed same as the port side markings.
I will have to cut most of them in half and apply right side to left. That won't correct everything, but better than nothing.

Thanks for the reply!
Check also how the end of the canopy glazing is covered with metal - do they show this in the model instructions?
If no gun is provided, than it's just a repack of a standard A6M5, but it's visible in the box-art though.

The gun they provide is miniscule. I don't like it and was thinking of using something, but from what see, it is tiny. Here is other things I found as like you, I am curious. It most certainly is a rebox as this is something they do all of the time.Thanks for the reply!

I was lucky to find the decals when they were available.
This supposedly shows where a second cannon could be mounted.

Is it the same gun used in the Geko, I mean Gico? The one in the Tamiya Gico, oops I mean Geko might….

The Gekko was a twin-engine night fighter that carried multiple 20 mm Type 99 cannons. In the most common night fighter version, these cannons were mounted to fire upward and sometimes downward at a 30-degree angle, an arrangement known as Schräge Musik.
This was a field conversion of the standard A6M5 fighter, armed with a single, oblique-firing 20mm Type 99 cannon mounted behind the pilot.
This variant was a "higher-powered" Type 99 Model 2 cannon, which had a longer barrel and chamber and a higher muzzle velocity.
Type 99 Model 2: Heavier, fired a more powerful cartridge, and featured a longer barrel, resulting in a higher muzzle velocity.
