Shaun, thanks for getting this up. Just a note on the build. I couldn't get the windows to stay in place, and even tried odorless superglue. They popped out after the hull was sealed, so the covers are on and down. I don't know if this kit will ever be popular enough to merit clear lenses from the aftermarket crowd.
Great nations do not fall because of external aggression; they first erode and decay inwardly, so that, like rotten fruit, they fall of themselves. The strength of a country is the sum total of the moral strength of the individuals in that country.

Good review Russ- I had much the same experience on the hull of my ZSL. There's no doubting its a nice kit but I would have liked some clear lenses etc, and like you said, there's probably no market for aftermarket sets apart from some etch.
