Nice to see the F2A-1 but sure is pricey for such a little plane but I guess if you want a right B-239 you have to pay the price. I think its worth it although I am saving my pennies for the F2A-3. I have never been all that comfortable with the conversion of the F2A2 I did and I want to do a really nice A-3 and mount it in a case as its my fav WWII plane. I am still waiting for the F2A-3 but I think that is on its way. Does the Kagero book show MF-11 in erroneous national markings? Shoot me if I am wrong but I think all F2A-3's at that period had six station national isignia.
The Special Hobby F2A-3 is already out. Just ordered one from GreatModels.

Since you've committed, could you let me know how you like it?

Here's mine:
Isn't Special Hobby doing a second Buffalo/339? An RAF bird would round out the selection nicely. Curt
I think I'm in love :)
Seriously, very nice work .
I built the Tamiya kit when I was a kid.
Recently I have become an ace several times over in a B 239 (IL2 Forgotten Battles flight sim)
Think I'm going to have to build another kit of a Buffalo one of these days................
