I was digging through the stash in storage and came across the Tamiya 1/48 Zero and 109E-4/7. Hadn't opened the boxes yet, so I thought I'd take a look. I wasn't terribly inpressed with either in regard to amount of parts or detail. Were these a couple of their lesser kits, or am I missing something? I realize both a/c were a bit spartan, but.....Now it becomes a sore point to think I paid extra for Tamiya. I also have their 1/72 Corsair that is most impressive in both detail and parts count. What happened in the larger scale?
