Messerschmitt Me 262 A-1a/U4 Airplane Model Building Kit

This is the second kit I've assembled from Hobby Boss. In both kits, especially this one, the detail, fit, and finish were superb. I teach at Penn State on military matters and have researched almost all Luftwaffe aircraft with attention to the technical breakthrough machines such as the ME-262A and the casting detail of this model was top drawer. The designers of the kit even went to the effort of providing a weighted nose gear enclosure to allow to completed model to stand properly on its tricycle landing gear. Recommended.

The kit looks cool, however I don’t like receiving items that have been opened. Either it was not mentioned or I missed it.However the kit looks in good shape and the box art is a bit roughed up.
