Any one know if this is new tooling or just a rebox of the old Matchbox kit, which the pictures support! Bummer if it is! Revell wasting money!
It is the Matchbox kit molded in light gray plastic.
Thanks for the confirmation J.H.! I have one of those with the wings off a Monogram A-1H, which is a decent kit for the price, to kit bash with a Cobra Co. cockpit set, but dread all the work involved! Maybe Taymia will come through for us!
Well you wish in one hand and put the Matchbox/Revell kit in your other. See which one fills up first 
Isit the best kit out there? Cetainly not. And while Tamiya has done their beautiful late model A-1s, there is not even a rumor of them tackeling the -5.
Good things come to those who wait!
This is true. Tamiya’s penchant for secrecy concerning new releases is pretty strong. After all, their new Gama Goat came out of nowhere suddenly…
