What is it with Mistercraft quality control????!!!!
Yes its a cheap model and no one is expecting top end or the super new detail of Airfix who have advanced their models to keep up with the highly detailed kits such as Eduard,Arma Hobby, AZ or Tamiya. BUT frequently bad instructions,an entire chapter number missing but always theres problems with the decals. Bad allignment,registry but most annoying is missing decals. The company loves to tell you how many decal options you get then miss some out or mismatch. There habit of the same kit in numerous boxes with different art work and different national decal options means back in the factory no one is keeping an eye on whose putting the decalsin the boxes. Also misleading are special editions which sometimes vary the decals displayed according to the country the kit is sold in! Misleading advertising. If you are going to flood the market with one mark or variant of the same aircraft with multiple decal options then at least put the decals in. They seem to have a master sheet and cut off the decals for that variant but frequently put in the wrong ones or miss them out. So whats the point of choice. My Swiss mustang boasted 4 schemes. 2 had missing decals so you dont get the advertised choices. Smer,Hellerand mistercraft are cheap old kits which are good for beginners to start on but hey guys at least get your instruction sheets drawn by a modeller and quality control check the decal section. Its terrible. Nice options of aircraft other companies dont make,a cheap option and a workhorse to practice super detailing,upping the details with scrath building. Way too many boxings that arent beung monitered. Shabby

Avoid
Do not buy this. The injected plastic is too think in places, particularly the bits holding on the propellers (lots of cutting out and filing for the connecting bits to then break), and the decals fall apart. Spend a couple of quid more and get a Revell or Airfix.

Poor Quality
The model parts were a poor fit, lots of filing and filling required to finish.Decals not complete, some either missing or not catered for.
