What Pyro/Inpact kids I built they've been awesome. Not that many of them just the British by plane fighters. But I've got some of their magnificent Men flying machines models they look awesome too. 

So far the furious the only one I have not built but one of these days ... 

For those of you who have not built them, they had these little dimples on the struts and in the wings to show you where to drill if you wanted to rig it. I rigged them all. I drilled out the holes to do so. My Gloster Gladiator was rigged with a single piece of thread. When my airhead fumblefingered college girlfriend picked it up, she dropped it from about 4 ft.  She knocked the landing gear off but that was the only damage! Dislodged a couple glue welds. But little dab of liquid glue and the model is tight.  Still have it.

All my best,

Fred Boucher
