I see where someone else picked up the the B-24D..I couldn't resist it and got one to go with my other MP B-24J, "Dragon and His Tail". I don't know if any of you have ever closely studied the detail on some of these recent releases over the last year, but while reading about the history of this B-24D (named "The Goon"), I took out my printer's magnifying glass (for studying tiny printing detail) and believe it or not, you can clearly read the crewmember's names on the left side of the aircraft. It looks like a small blue line until you magnify it. There's also 16 Japanese flags printed near the turret gunner's position, with his name also printed on the aircraft ("Benko", for TSgt. Arthur Benko, the top scoring gunner of WWII). I really hand it to MP for the unbelievable detail they put into these models.

So you'd recommend this model? I keep waiting for someone to come out with a 1:144 B-24, but I can only hold my breath for so long...

Yes, Folgore...I would recommend this one...a nice and detailed model for the scale and price.
