The box has a message on it: Surprise! Anna-Marie said you will enjoy this one. Love ya! Brig. Xmas 2008. Well, Anna -Marie was right. This was a great build. My wife bought me this kit for Christmas, at CSS 08, last fall. It took about 40 hours to build. Note to self ( airbrush the signs, rather than hand painting). Do not ask me why I would make this comment. I have about 5 more hours to go on this kit with weathering, some final details and a base of some sort. Enjoy, and I hope the boy's stay out of trouble.............
