For what I paid for it ($25 shipped, when it was re-released a number of years ago), I'm very happy with it. Its obviously not as good as the Minichamps 956's, but those cost 3x as much...they should be better. On display, it looks very good & has pretty decent engine detail. My only complaint really is the sealed cockpit.
