Looks like a gorgeous model. I'm a little confused by the nomenclature though - the box and decal sheet plainly say FH4 while the article calls it an FH16 repeatedly. Is there a reason for that?

Well spotted, I was testing you all .
I think I got carried away, looked at it four times, so 4 x 4 = 16 .
But your right it is the FH4, dunno where I got the 16 from, not enough coffee in the morning me thinks.

Oh, good, it means I wasn't hallucinating. But great review! I'll be saving my pennies for one for sure.
