This is an average Hasegawa kit, for better or worse. The pros: it fits together beautifully; the decals settle down very well, even the big D-Day stripes; and it will result in an accurate-looking little P-47. The cons: there is barely any detail in the cockpit, just an instrument panel and a pilot; the surface detail is shallow; there's no detail in the wheel wells either; and the single-piece canopy fits rather vaguely atop the fuselage with nary a clue to where it's meant to be. Tamiya and Academy both offer a variety of Thunderbolts with greater detail and more options, but Hasegawa's version is cleanly molded and easy to build, making it marginally less fun but slightly more relaxing.
