Great kit. :thumbs_up_1: One thing I would like to see in these twin packs however is the two hulls being the same style. I personally prefer to model waterline, and having to dremel
a hull that small is to me, quite annoying.

Rats - couldn't read the fine print on-line when I bought this.

I'm looking for two 1942 versions both waterline. Obviously I'll have to cut the one-piece hull, with what I've no idea. I'm thinking that a small hobby saw blade on an X-acto may be the way to go? Slow but controlled.

Second, are the options included for 1942 versions? As in can I swap out a couple of things, or leave a few things off?

Thanks, it's always more complicated than one thinks it will be. Review is helpful, however.

If you want 1942, take a look at the Livermore/Monssen combo also by Dragon.

I got these also! I guess I'll still need to saw one hull...
