I always said to myself I wouldnt drop this much on a kit. I steered away from a $900 1/35 Dora Railway Gun and satisfied myself with the 1/144 version instead.
But I think I could treat myself to this. Maybe a ceiling hanger. Might have to reinforce the ceiling first !
I remember the 1/72 Goose that Mike Glinsky was building here…havent had an update in a while, wonder if he finished it ?
Best of luck if you pull the trigger. Maybe you could make a dio in your swimming pool. [:)]

The Fujimi kit? 3000 miles away mine sits 1/3 complete patiently waiting for my return. I hollowed out the gun to model the breech open, gun lowered in the reload position. Thinned a 1/4" aluminum tube for the center, a modified chain saw files helped a lot. Its very close to the internal diameter as the kit shells shoot through like a blow gun. Between the upper super structure you may want to add scratch gussets ect. as the area is void of any details. Was going to scratch the hand rails but probably will find some 1/160 scale model RR ones instead.
Hmmmmm…a ceiling hanger? You may want to convert your garage into an aircraft hangar…
