Heh yeah, it is much hated for understandable reasons but it works! Well, most of the time anyway.
I just wish it were possible to buy spare parts. Also, what people say about quality declining is true, it's probably not a good buy right now.

Sure also got one of the last A4709 chrome... but you are right..the inner parts are quite vulnerable and the overall quality is not like in earlier days.
But the 4709 set in the wooden Box was a good offer 10 years ago

Yeah, I luckily scored mine off ebay a couple years ago. As a matter of fact I broke it right after the beginning of lockdown, and Testors was nice enough to hook me up with a newer one and the quality difference is crazy.
The new one was probably a serviced one which didn't work because a different part was damaged, so in the end I had to rebuild it using parts from both guns. Would have been much simpler with a spare parts service.

Nice choice, I did the same plane (but Revell and SkyModels decals)!

Alex, no pictures? 🙂 That decal sheet sounds like something I might want to get, so many choices!

Not yet, it's on my bucket list for next week... Decal sheet is excellent, but be aware, only stencils and roundels for 1-2 aircraft, regarding of your choice.
