Mirror Models CMP kits are much better, in any respect.
BTW, if this will make you a little more happy. The IBG 1/72 CMP kits are even worse.
HTH
Cheers!

Thanks Ilian, I was afraid this was a bit of a fantasy vehicle. It makes sense to maximize molds, but I'm sure a little disappointing for some that this is the case. On a more positive note, the kit is going together quite well and the detail is pretty good. As to accuracy of the details, I really couldn't say. I'm just concentrating on how it goes together.
