It is taking all my self-control to not open the bags, I know if I open them I'll have to start.

Come on don't keep us waiting Edbert

When...I start this I expect (and hope) it takes months to complete.

I'm never afraid of part-count, unless dat shat don't fit!

Lack of engineering drives me batty.

Zoukei-Mira is known to be one of the higher end kits out there. Expensive too and well engineered. Expensive too. I'm assuming it's your first Zoukei-Mura kit.
I highly doubt you'll find fit issues or lack of detailing.

This...

...needs to be finished. As posted elsewhere, I'm almost ready to say I love rubber-band-tracks.

At my age, with failing eyesight, I have no time to spend fighting with fit, more than what should always be expected. If that means spending more money, so be it, but this kit cost less than or no more than the 1/32 Corsair and 1/48 F-4B from Tamiya.

I'm hoping this complexity with so many details and the large assembly manual will help me slow down.

My decision for now is...do I use my old RLM colors in enamel with the acrylic wash?

Me too, I hate those link and length, either fall apart when attempting to fit on or get so much glue on them .

Eh, it's simple enough: Are you in the service? Because if not, then you're not allowed to use the instructions, which would make it hard to build the model

(Also, I wonder who they got to write their German for them, because there's a superfluous "Die" there that isn't grammatically wrong but would not appear on a real German set of instructions.)
