Hobby boss me-262

I’ve been building a lot of very high part count AFV lately and would like a change of pace to a simpler build. The hobby boss me-262 caught my eye as it looks fairly simple but also very nicely detailed! The reviews seem good but I haven’t found any build reviews. Anyone built one? If so how do they go together?

Which scale? HB has them in 1/18, 1/48, and 1/72.

I’m looking at the 1/48 scale ones. Specifically the A1A-U5

Didn’t keep reading, so I don’t know how far he got with it. I only build 1/32 so I can’t comment on this kit although the reviews seem generally positive. I built their ADGZ-Steyr and while the kit looks good, it was a tad fiddly in parts. Not so much as the Miniart Pz III’s I just built, but definitely no Tamiya.

Thanks! I’ll take a read through!

I built the night fighter version and had a pleasant experience with it. Usually Hobby Boss has some fiddly bits, but this one didn’t.

I was looking at that one too, the nose antenna looked interesting!
