I was just noticing the box art says it is a B/G. I did not think that was possible. The G had the 3.5 degree angled wing and the B was a straight wing. It's been a while since I saw the kit. Which one does it have?. Also, the old AMT kit. Was it a straight or angled wing? Steve

i buildt the AMT long before i knew what i was doing, but it stills sits high on a shelf. the wings, glued to the fuselage (no filler), angle slightly upwards at the ends. it was a good model for it's time and comparible to monograms in detail.
anyone else kept a crappy build for any reason? i built the lindberg he 162 as my first build in 26 years last year and i display it next to my latest. it shows me the skills i had lost while the latest encorages me to keep inproving.
I'd been contemplating posting this myself. It might have decals for a G but it couldn't be a model of a G unless it had a whole new fuselage to emulate the new wing incidence. The original MONO and AMT issues both were midseries B/C models. Now why would Revellogram release a kit like that? Don't they realize what happens when you raise our ire? Beers,

I thought the AMT was an "A" while the Monogram was a "B" and that one was the short winged version. Any truth to this? Jerry 47

You guyz are trying to get me to start another crapalanche aren't you? My AMT B-26 is sealed and buried so I'm not digging for that. I'm pretty sure it's not an A, probably a midseries B. The Mono B-26 has the later long wing B-10 with either the early B tail position or the later turret. hth
