Rearer than hens teeth, OOP for about 20 years and consequently when available going for stupid money (typically around the 100 mark), I managed to fenagle this one from a bookstore in the States, with delivery , for 60... so RESULT! I've discovered a number of vehicles I wasn't aware the Irish Army had used and also validated the Civil War Ford T van dio I completed a while back. Plenty of build ideas and inspiration in this one. ![](https://i.ibb.co/Ld7Rm0D/20240718-102117.jpg) ![](https://i.ibb.co/8PZcwMv/20240718-103856.jpg) ![](https://i.ibb.co/0ntT1cL/20240718-103741.jpg) ![](https://i.ibb.co/5cRVq1d/20240718-103736.jpg)

I pre- ordered this back around Easter and the box of joy arrived lunchtime ![](https://i.ibb.co/wh5pZSm/20240722-134619.jpg) ![](https://i.ibb.co/cb716wj/20240722-134632.jpg) ![](https://i.ibb.co/nRr8kxF/20240722-134652.jpg) Had a gentle rummage though it, this is going to be a joyous build me thinks. My first RFM kit and it really does live up to the hype at first glance.

It should be a big box, the F-89 is as big as an F-16 Falcon, well at least the Kinetic kit is as big as my F-89 from Revell
