I'd say that's a GREAT guess, Elmer.

I've got both, UNBUILT (several Hasegawa & 1 x Tamiya 'Razorback'), & my money's on the 1/48th Tamiya (???????)

FlyX........?

Cheers Elmer - Interesting point though.........

THOSE ARE NOT THE MARKINGS SUPPLIED WITH THE KIT.......

They're obviously 'Aftermarket'-decals !!!!!!!!!

I've scanned & 'affixed' (as an attachment) the ACTUAL markings supplied in Tamiya 'Razorback' kit No.86

Ah... Little Chief. Yeah, now I remember seeing this kit... this is probably the same one they used for the Masterworks finished model that is now so difficult to locate. But I fancy "Zombie" as I am a sucker for bare metal finish and invasion stripes!

Re: B11E749 P-47 Razorback Richard Kik "Fearless Dick"

Aikens is now listing the model in stock... but of course, no pictures other than the pre-pro. Fingers are crossed that the canopy issue is fixed and the antannae is attached!

Give 'em a call and ask 'em (But that could just be a listing error...??) UPDATE: Take that back... it's listed in the new arrivals in the newsletter, too, so I guess we'll know soon enough what's what. The pic used on for the listing looks like the center and rear parts of the canopy are molded together but.....
