Guilty!

KX: You will have to give me a proper review on Eduard resin. I know I have some Mustang wheels someplace. I am kind of finicky about resin from my early experiences with garage kits, however Eduard’s standards appear to be fine. Are there mold defects, or bubbles? Are the wheels round?

I dig your idea to build beyond any kit imposed limitations—relatable a.f.
Make more models!

Bruce, let’s kick it off!

Here’s the wheels:

They’re very nicely-done and I can’t find any defect anyplace on them. And there’s masks for them too:

Here’s the sidewalls:

And here’s the cockpit:

No glaring imperfections anyplace in there that I could tell, and I especially like how they set up the hardware for the rudder pedals. They did a good job making it more true to the genuine article:

I haven’t broken into the PE stuff yet but it looks good in the bag and I trust their PE stuff. One advantage is the trim wheels are PE! An so are the radio faces.

And check out the instructions:

I’m happy with it from what I’ve seen already. We’ll do a deep-dive during build time of course. So far though, I’m pleased.

I guess it's not a shopping mistake if you are going to use the parts! The goodies look very nice and I'm sure they'll look killer in your future 1/48 Emil Redux Redux Redux.

Bruce, what I have seen or reviewed of Eduard´s Brassin stuff, I can say those are immaculate!
