I built that one complete for photos on the website (model eventually sent to Chris G. for a project he had).
The photos in the listing show different angles of the inlet area. But, the canopy included (I didn't do clear), looked like the bubbled canopy, not the straight one on the prototype. That's the way Nobi modeled it in the original kit. |

You are right in that this is not an XP-59A, but rather a production version which had a modified vertical fin and a larger bubbled canopy ( framed ).
My redesign skills to convert it to the XP-59A are just not there, So I will wait.
I may consider purchasing the silver version in any case.
Thanks for the link.
