Ahoy, mateys! As an aviation enthusiast and former pilot, I couldn't resist the allure of this model kit. The Trumpeter 1/350 USS Lexington CV2 model kit is a blast from the past, and an incredibly detailed one at that. With 20 sprues, clear canopies, and folding wings, this kit has everything you need to recreate the iconic aircraft carrier from WWII. The kit even comes with 13 aircraft, including 4 F4Fs, 6 SBDs, and 3 TBDs.

This model kit is perfect for anyone who loves history or aviation. It's great for those who are just getting into model building, as it's a skill level 3 kit, but it's also a fun challenge for more experienced builders. And let's be real, who doesn't love a good ol' fashioned model kit?

The attention to detail in this kit is incredible. The aircraft are accurately scaled and the decals are very easy to apply. The kit also includes a waterline plate and display stand, so you can show off your finished product.

Now, onto the pro con list:

Pros:
- Detailed and accurate
- Comes with 13 aircraft
- Easy to apply decals
- Waterline plate and display stand included

Cons:
- Some parts may require sanding or filling
- Instructions could be more clear

In conclusion, the Trumpeter 1/350 USS Lexington CV2 model kit is a fantastic choice for any aviation or history lover. It's fun, challenging, and incredibly detailed. The cons are minor and don't detract from the overall experience. I highly recommend this model kit for anyone looking for a nostalgic adventure on the high seas (or just on their workbench)!

Bottom line: 9/10 stars.
