That was a good campaign back in the day. The Grumman, anything built by Grumman and that would include the Apollo LEM.
Just want the modeling community needs, another Wildcat! @SA Dave

Academy, Tamiya, Eduard, and Hobbyboss all offer 1/48 F4F-4's in their line-up. Price points seem quite similar, around $30.00 USD + shipping.
This kit, in this scale has come a long way from the vintage Monogram issue!
