Guillow's Building Sets Editorial Review

The Guillow's Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress Model Kit is a high-quality model that is worth the price. It provides an enjoyable building experience for both experienced modelers and beginners. The skin covering is sturdy and can withstand outdoor display with the application of waterproof dope. The price of the model has increased, possibly due to its large size. The kit includes some type of 'paper' to be used as the skin for the plane. However, additional decals can be purchased separately. The model does not come with any motors, but it can be motorized for free flight by an experienced modeler.
