Yes, the P-51 is overdone, because it was so great... If you're leaning towards a Tamiya P-51D, I would make a few suggestions to spice it up a bit. There are plenty of after-market modifications to make planes such as the P-51K, F-6D, etc. If you wanted, you could even make the ETF-51D out of it... If you're looking for a P-47, I would suggest the Tamiya P-47D or P-47M... If you want something earlier, there's a C conversion kit for the P-47D. If you want the last 'Jug, the P-47N, I would suggest the Academy kit.

Cheers Deac I'm already looking at after market modifications.
I think I may go for the P-47 with a couple of modifications to improve detail both inside and out.

The Buffalo in my opinion, despite being a small and nice starter craft, is a little too "basic" if that makes sense.
