Looking forward to following this.

Is it just me or does it say figures not included on the outside of the box and there are figures on the sprues?

 

[papa 695]

Yes Dave I was surprised to see the figures in also

Nice choice Ian. I have an older version of this kit and it also has the figures. Testors also reboxed it.

I'm not sure what winter camo looks like for this plane, so another vote here!
