Sorry to hear you found a bastion of stupid diks. We all hit them unfortunately. I hope you told them to F-off before you dumped them!
As for the model, I liked the canopy cover idea, and your idea for the Squadron and the colors looks great.
Seriously fellow modellers, I think our comrade is in need of a Karma Bomb. Give me your address, and This. Will. Show...
There is only one full Super Pack there, the other is partial and they are from an older Bandai kit, but I hope they will help!
