Customer Reviews
Was a fun build, had some challenges like some amount of flash to trim, sanding some parts for better fit, putty for some seams and also had a bit of a deformed engine cowling but I was able to putty and sand it to look fine. The decal sheet really makes this kit pop! Many livery options to choose from, tons of nicely detailed decals and once completed a very nice looking model. As always great service and shipping from Sunward! (The clear stand in my photos is not included, ordered the Airfix stands from Sunward)
He is pretty excited about getting started on this model.
Overhaul, a very decent kit. My only "complain" is that the windshield (with the nose down) looks nothing like the real thing and needs extensive work.
Plus, mine came with badly (very badly) molded engine cowlings (but Revell is sending replacement parts).
Overall, I do recommend this kit for any Concorde lover (like me) but be prepared to invest some time if you seek realism...
