Re: A6M5 "Special" paint scheme..

I agree. I have both and the Marushin blows the FM out of the sky! Marushin does not use any decals whatsoever on any of their models (what you see in the brochure photo on this thread is a pre-production that may have them though). Also, I had one of my A6M2 Zeros customized by Greg Springer (a professional model builder) and he not only re-painted it with different Pearl Harbour markings and the "correct pale olive" airframe color, but he provided a resin instrument panel for the cockpit (not an entire cockpit insert). This plane is THE showpiece of my entire collection. I would sell all 300 + models before I would sell this one if I had to!


I think this calls for some pics!
