I'll be truthful.  I usually don't review the larger scale stuff, and am quite impressed on just how this set is laid out.  It's all interior for the Trumpeter 1/32 F8F Bearcat and it's pre-colored and self-adhesive.

First, there are parts to build up the instrument panel.  Since everything is pre-colored, you don't have to worry about painting any of it.  You'll add bezels, the actual instrument panel itself, as well as some levers.

Next are pieces to build up the side consoles on the cockpit tub.  You'll also add parts to the cockpit floor and sidewalls.  Finally, you'll build up the harnesses with multiple pieces.

Being one that primarily builds in smaller scales, seat and lap belts are usually a one piece affair.  Building these up with lots of pieces is something new to me, and I wish those doing it all the luck in the world.  It brings another level of detail to an already detailed kit.

My thanks to Eduard for supplying this review fret.
