A-10 1/48 Which one?

Seeing that Italeri has released a new A10, and I have a Tamiya and a Monogram Kit on the shelf, do I invest in more inventory, or build what I have? In other words, any opinions on the best kit? How does the Italeri Kit stack-up against the other 1/48 kits?

Thanks, Dennis.

Here’s a quick review of the Italeri kit…

Dennis Smith;

The best 1/48 A-10’s are now in the hands of HobbyBoss, Revell-O-grams is the next best, then on to Italeri’s, then to Tamiya’s, and to ESCI’s, I know Italeri has released a completely new A-10 but there are a load of thing’s wrong with the new kit, the new HobbyBoss looks like a scaled down version of the Trumpeters 1/32 A-10 but it has a better detailed cockpit then the Trumpeter, and the HobbyBoss kit is about the same price as the Italeri but loads better the the Italian Stallion, but if you want an inexpensive A-10 with some good details then the Revell-O-Grams is the best
