This will be my next project. It's a fairly limited run so called multi media kit, so we'll see how it all goes together.
In the box you get several sprues of plastic, I think by Sword, another Czech company, which looks nicely done with good surface detail. There is a bit of flash, but no problems with the molding. I'm not sure about the curious brown colour, not that it will matter.
There is some nice resin from a company called Artillery. I've already removed a large casting block from the wheel well insert, it will probably require further thinning.
Next a couple of frets of photo etch and a clear plastic sheet for the instrument panel.
Clear parts look okay, I've seen better but also a lot worse!
Decals for 6 options come in their own bag. There is also a sheet with colour profiles of all 6 (nice) and one showing the position of the various stencils.
Finally some instructions typical of this sort of kit. They assume some knowledge of the subject. The colour coding for plastic/resin/PE is a nice touch.
If I can find this thread again in the new format I'll post progress as I go along
Cheers
