Messerschmitt Me 262 A-1a/U4 - Hobby Boss 80372 - 1/48 - in-box review

In this in-box review video, I am looking at Hobby Boss' 1/48 scale Messerschmitt Me 262 A-1a/U4 (kit no. 80372). This review is applicable for all Hobby Boss 1/48 Me 262 kits. I'm taking a look at the surface detail and fit of the major parts, clear parts, decals, instructions, painting guide etc. Like the Tamiya and Dragon/TriMaster Me 262 kits that came before it, Hobby Boss Me 262 kits don't offer dropped leading edge slats, doh! Can this lower-cost kit compete with the Tamiya Me 262? Let's find out together!
