1February 2, 2025Sprue Shot, Will try to build it alongside with Tamiya FAA Corsair
2February 2, 2025I really like how Otaki kit was so advanced back then and very easy to build. I'd wish kit like this with simple yet adequate detail and very cheap still being sold massively and hopefully can attract young generation of modeler.

16February 9, 2025The OOB decal are ruined only in this roundel, which I anticipate.
17February 9, 2025I cannibalize the decal from Hobbyboss Hellcat Mk.I, although it is a little inaccurate, the OOB Arii decal is also fictious.
