Default RE: Top Flite Giant Scale Spitfire ARF

ORIGINAL: vertical grimmace

Nice to see this plane. Too bad it looks just like the little 2610 Scale combat ARF they have had for a while. I just cannot get past how terrible the plastic coverings look on warbirds. An ARC version would be welcome. But then the cowl does not look like it fits very well. That area could be improved it the top portion of the fuse was a solid transition to the spinner ring. Then have the fuse split in that nose area in front of the firewall so now big plastic cowl would be needed.
Yup, I hear you; they did the same thing on the Hanger 9 60 Size Spit Cowl, also, for a Spitfire, it should be Brown and Green, Gray and Green; and Brown and Tan; not Tan and Green; at least the Monokote is Matt Finish.

I'm going hold out for a ZERO or go ahead and get the FW-190 and hopefully get the ZERO later if they release one, keep my fingers crossed!
