Another Zero? Hold me back! It might be so bad if Sweet included the refueling truck.

Oh, and did anyone notice the 2000 yen price tag? This is considerably more than we've paid for Sweet kits in the past. As it is, there seems to be only one Zero kit in the box. You'd hope there was two or this is a very expensive Zero.

Was going to say the same thing about the truck!

This is the same kit that was announced in the beginning of July. But I'm sure Sweet will release yet another one after this, since there actually is demand for these in Japan.

This one comes with 2 planes and the drop tanks which were released as as a separate set, so that might explain the high price.

No fuel truck either!
