        Let us know if & when that I-20 kit ever sees the light of day.

        The I-53 kit was supposedly to be retooled & the I-20 redone from that horrible botch of a job Lindberg's renowned design team did but I'm sure that's just another urban legend.

          Seemingly EVERY aspect of the 1/72 I-53 kit was wrong. No re-tooling. A completely new kit is required. Not likely.

          Not a peep out there about the I-20. In this department, me thinks Lindberg is DONE!

            I considered getting one & bashing it into a war machine based around the war hammer 40,000 universe. The oversized rivets, hatches etc lends itself to the theme as the gw stuff is all a little in & out of scqle too. Just add a couple of gun turrets etc & there you go. I recon one of the gato sd's might work along with extra foam... The Titanic :biggrin:
