everything in 1 bag, glass bagged seperate. Re-sealable bags, so be carefull pulling the parts out, the bag flap sticks to the parts!

pretty ugly sink mark on one side, but there's nothing on the back side of it! But at least the panels are scribed, so it's repairable!

close up of the dash, not too bad, but pretty good flash on the props

the wings look decent except for the swirls in the plastic, but it will paint over

Revell's 1/72 Hudson Mk. I/II. I really wanted the 1/48 Classic Airframes kit, but I'll be damned if I'm going to pay $100-150 + for a kit that was $50 new. So I'll settle for this!
Not such a bad kit, the reviews are positive. The parts generally look good, some defects on the surface of the plastic, nothing outrageous. But, the glass is pretty bad, I think the worst I've seen. you can't even see through it!, it's rippley. decals are pretty basic, no stencils, but a dash decal is there.
Well, for less than 25 bucks I'm not gonna complain,,,,, much!

Thx for sharing the review, I'm only wondering whether this one can be easily modified to represent Lockheed Model 14H Super Electra

I have no idea about the Electra, Lukass. I suppose anything is possible. Dave. It will probably be some time before I start on this one, but at least I have the album started! Who knows what I'll pick out next. Right now I have 2 57 Chevys started. After that I have TOO MANY to pick from, so It could be anything!!

Album info

2013 Re-boxing of an MPM kit. Scribed panel lines, but no rivet detail. Fairly decent detail overall, but pretty small in 72nd scale. Maybe a good one for the grandson!
