Sorry to say, but most Lindberg kits are pretty clunky BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH. Most of their good stuff was originally made by someone else. And that is not too many things.
Most test shots are done in a color that will differ from the kits. I have a few of the 1/16th scale test shots from Revell that come in some funky colors.
I always looked forward to running into him at some event and talking a bit of shop about models, cars or life in general.
He will be sorely missed.
Condolences to his family, friends and the modeling community

HL near me is wiped out of Sale kits. I picked up the last one, the Meng Lexington toon carrier, and that is all! Hoping the Dyno Cougar shows up on the re-stock
