Great model
In the process of making this at the moment. Looks an impressive model so hope the finished item is just as good - plenty of help on youtube to help get the best finish

Very big, impressive and easy to build. A massive improvement on the old Testors kit.
This is a great price for a HUGE plastic kit. The model is a quite accurate representation of the SR-71 towards the end of its career (1980s-90s).Pros:- It is very easy to build if you take time and test fit before assembly.- Builds up quickly into a very impressive kit (pics I took after just a week's work)- Very good fitting parts. Not much filler required except around the engine intake mouth- Good detail in the wheelwells and cockpit. The instrument panel decals are excellent.- Decals are as good quality as any aftermarket items. Excellent. Four options with hi and low-vis stencils are included.- Display stand included is sturdy and more than adequate to support the model. It needs no nose weight.Cons:- some mistakes in the instructions with mis-numbered parts for the air intakes and elevons. You can figure it out but need to take care.- the landing gear assembly is nice but very flimsy. The stand is really the only way to display this huge model.- no pilot figures are included if you want to display this in flight. They will need to be sourced from elsewhere.Verdict: Probably the best jet kit Revell has produced since the 1/32 Hawker Hunter. Surface details are nice and understated, shapes are accurate enough, detail is good for the scale and the assembly is not challenging for an experienced modeller, and should be well within the capability of an average skill levelif you take your time. It knocks spots off the only other available kit (the forty-year-old (!) Italeri/Testors kit) At this price, it should be on everyone's Christmas list!

Do not purchase unless you are a very experienced modeller........
I had been awaiting this kit with rather a lot of excitement.......I have been severely let down by Revell......The fit is awful......I have had to shave a good part of the internal support spine down just to get the two halves of the main body to fit snugly......Only to find later I have to take a few MM off of the cockpit tubs to get the front of the body to fit properly.......Very disappointed....It will still be a nice kit but expect to do a lot of work to get there......For very experienced builders only......
