Wish I'd known of that page when I built the kit. There's a lot of names there who used to post here. I think Rob is the only one still looking in here occasionally.

I check occasionally, but rarely post anymore. Rob and I couldn't believe the similarities between the Victoria Products and the Condor kit.
And they both suck - it's amazing how much effort Rob put into that model, just to get it to look vaguely like an Me-163A.

I didn't know specifically everything that was wrong with the kit when I built it, but the R4M's looked like milk jugs, and the canopy looked so small that the pilot would have a hell of a time getting into the aircraft.

har!
I suppose I figured that the designers wouldn't have worried about pilot comfort when they designed it. It did seem to be smaller than the hole left for it to fill. I have an early TS-11 Iskra kit that has the same problem. It's moulded in a lovely light chartreuse.
