Revell PB4Y-2 Privateer-anyone built one?

is it actually out? i've never seen it advertised or on a shelf.

i have a matchbox i'll probably never build.

Sure --- it's even on the shelves of Yodobashi Camera in Japan :-) But I won't buy it---I had (maybe still have, back home) the old Matchbox kit, bought corrected cowls & a set of vacuform canopies, I think even some other stuff like tyres, and then never built it.... bah!

mine is just the stock matchbox. squadron sells the vac form glass. weren't there better props, too? i won't build mine unless i get space to display it. i hate hanging models.

Yeah, that's right, I remember. I bought for the B-25 at the same time, will use on the Italeri kit later this winter (pieces washed after years sitting in a box slowly covering in dust).

Um, I think this sucker bought those too :-) It's possible I sold the whole lot off cheaply to someone at our local club before I moved to Japan. That would have been the best way for it to have gone. Can't imagine what it would do now---slowly degrade in the outside room back home.

Likewise. I remember how pissed off I was when my club back in Kyoto decided to do a 1/32-scale "year theme".... :-)

i bet people were banging their heads. i saw the bits to convert a 1/4 to a privateer. all together it was several hundred bucks. not gonna happen here.
