Academy 1/48 F-22 Raptor Part 1: In box Review

Part 1 of my Series on building Academy's 1/48 F-22A Raptor for the Scale Modeller Critique Group Build.
Next part will be a build/fit review where I put the major components together, followed by a look at Italeri's 1/72 version that I will use for a paint mule.
Plus...a little surprise!
