Revell / Monogram 1967 Grumman F8F Bearcat first impression / unboxing

[@glhx2112]

I remember building this kit back in the late 1970's when I was a kid, the kit was very easy with no major issues.

After being in a box for 13 years you might have difficulty in being folded and unfolded again. Great video. I often wonder about Revell and the choices of which old tools they keep using. The kit looks okay, but (I am sure this will get down votes) I am jot much of a cat fan. The Hellcat was the pinnacle in my view and the Bearcat is just a little oddly shaped. Thanks again.

Kit review and origami lesson in one video, excellent, thank you!

Maybe the trick is to fold the instructions into a paper plane as well?

[@iankingsley2864]

Another example of naughty Revell. They really need to come clean with the tooling history of some of their kits in a similar fashion to Airfix who these days are straight up with kit history. Some Revell kits are truly ancient and inexperienced modellers or those unaware of Scalemates can get caught out. Look forwarding to seeing your completed and airbrushed handiwork!

He's used the B word. Don't tell Mos. Love the nail varnish.

It's a particular shade of "could-no-be-bothered-to-put-a-glove-on Black..."

[@jaws666]

Dont you just love Revells "skill level" grading🤣🤣🤣

[@john-alanpascoe5848]

Considering its age it looks like it builds into a nice plane. If you want a different version than you’ve already done, maybe go for the one with the go faster stripe from the box art? Looking forward to the build video.

I noticed when building that actually option A is different. I don't know why it took so long to realise this...

[@taggarz3656]

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Nah it's just Mos getting too orgasmic over a Bearcat
