Halinski Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero

The other model I received today (again from hobbyfactory.com) is the Halinski Zero - with the pre-formed cockpit. As anybody who has seen a Halinski kit knows, they make sure to include enough parts that nobody can say they didn't get their money's worth.
There are some great build threads out there on this one - including this nice example by rlwitt on cm.net. One interesting note about this kit is that the back cover is parts on the inside, so the backs of a lot of parts will look a bit odd with the outside cover (pictures of the white prototype build) on the inside. Usual nice detail drawings, plus translated English instructions to supplement the diagrams.

Sheets - 5 plus 1 1/2 page of formers on standard paper.
Publisher: Halinski
Scale: 1:33

Just a note...
There is a mistake on the cowl - one of the panel lines is in the wrong place.
You can download corrected part from Halinski's page http://halinski.com.pl/ (look towards the bottom for a6m2.pdf file)
He also published corrected parts for the cowl inside of the Bf 109F model.

Thanks - I had downloaded that pdf before - but I need to do some sort of reminder about it when I go to build

Yeah I have a few Halinski kits with parts on the back. I like to collect my covers, so it always annoys me.
