The price is OK. It\u2019s not a cheap kit, but I have to say, the \u00a0quality standard here is very high.

If I were to compare, this kit feels more in line with the Yak-1b or Mustang, rather than the Hayabusa or the 1\/48 Airacobra. There are no visible flash or sink marks, and the whole model gives an impression of finesse and delicacy. The only thing missing is surface riveting, but the manufacturer\u2019s stance on that remains unchanged. This gives hope that the upcoming releases will maintain this high standard.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Video Review:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Curtiss H-75 A1\/A2 1\/72 Arma Hobby Inbox\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RVxHkkbV10c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Sebastian from Modeler\u2019s Workshop said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cTake a look at the surface details of the wings and fuselage: they are delicate and light, yet sharp and clear.
