Seeking opinions of this combo-kit (3x 1941 Japanese Naval aircraft)

Short and simple…

I’m feeling nervous about this kit seeing the only history shown is for the Zero and it goes back to before I was born, probably almost all of you too, 1942?

Obviously it has been remastered multiple times, but details/history of the Val and Kate are not there, or I do not know how to find them. I trust Hasegawa (generally) for anything engineered lately, but their old kits can be hit or miss.

Is this worth having?

The only one of the three I have is th Val and it looks to be a very nice kit. Hoping to make a start on it next year. Can’t vouch for the others as I’ve not seen them in the flesh, but the Val gets a thumbs up from me.

You might find this useful.

I do not own any of these models but based on some quick research, the Zero was tooled in 1996, the Val in 1998, and the Kate in 2001.

Ed, I’ve built all 3 of them over the years and can’t complain about the kits.
