    Many years ago when I had hair I tried to build one, bad idea ! The parts were so bad the kit ended up as a firecracker target ! I'm 68 now and still have one in my stash ! Your build brings back nightmares of endless tubes of Squadron putty and sheets of sandpaper I went through. You are a brave man !

    Longtime modeler, 50+ years, but I never heard of this kit. I will be looking for it.
    Smaller model looks like a Curtiss P-40. I'm building a couple now.

    That is a massive plane, the interior looks so futuristic, fun history. Another great review. Thank you.

      Thanks TE. It really was at the time and wasn't fully realized until the B-2's first flight in 1989! -Doug

    Built that kit back in the 90s in my teen years- you'll need lots of putty putting those outer wing pieces on the main fuselage but otherwise it turns out to be a pretty nice model once assembled.

      Zimm, You got that right. Thanks for sharing! -Doug

    I recall seeing this kit years ago. The interior reminds me of the starship Enterprise and it's a lot bigger than I anticipated in 72nd scale - you'd definitely have to clear a lot of space to accommodate it! Is this an early demo stealth plane?

      David, Right you are and thanks for sharing! -Doug
