Nicely detailed/sculpted kit - picked one up about 8 years ago. Main downside is that the tail is rigid/straight. I remoulded mine and cast it in foam latex for proper tail-whipping action  :D

remember to read up on handling vinyl kits, the amount of flash is overwhelming :D

Are they very different to plastic kits? If so, where can I read something about it?

i have a sneaking suspicion that the ED209 should have come with a label saying
"amateurs beware"  lol
