Carrots give reindeer gas, that means Santa gets "jet" exhaust in his face all night and with "carrot" chunks in it! Not a good scene on a white beard and red suit.

Very cool, Don. I was building a P-47N with the name, "Shell Pusher" (my CFS3 call sign) but got half-way done and the decals went hay-wire and it sits. I think they were an old Superscale sheet. Love that DC-130

The only problem with the DC-130A is that it's all wrong. Wrong nose or wrong engine/props. Etc…. The DC-130A that are depicted in the decals had the long pinochle nose on them and the USAF bird I believe had the original 3 bladed props. I'm sure a little more research would come up with more omissions. There were a couple of aftermarket pinochle noises made for it but that's history now. Cutting Edge made one. The kit would be more easy to build as an E-H verdant straight bird. You can get refueling pods for the wings to do a KC-130F (USMC) or with a nose job MC-130E or H, but that's a lot of plastic surgery nose job, like the DC-130A.
 
I saw vid on YouTube about a tank battle between a Panther, a couple of Shermans and a Pershing that happened in Cologne right in front of the cathedral. I kind of went down the YouTube hole for a while after that, looking at tank stuff and ending up buying these. I've read that the Panther kit is a pretty simple kit and a good one for a novice to start with, and since the last time I built a 1/35th tank was when I was 11 years old, I'm thinking about starting with it.
