Anyone know if this is the same plastic as the Arii 1/144 F-8C?

Thanks. Most notable feature (no pics yet) is that the cockpit is just a flat ledge along the top of the fuselage.

Neat, I'll have to check when I get home, but those are practically identical. The instruction sheet looks like it was clipped off of the back of the Entex box. LOL

Exactly the same. Same decals, same instructions (English v Japanese) printed on the box. Thanks.

But which was first released?

I'd bet on Arii, Entex was mostly a re-packager. I can't prove it, but I recall reading that on the old Rare Plane Detective site. They've cleaned it up now and I can't find the old info.
