Thanks cargoman, Nicholas, Scott and Adam.

I think that would be really cool if a few other rotors showed up. I never really considered building a helicopter before, but with some of the recent kit releases...that has changed (for me at least). I so want to add that Kittyhawk AH-1Z to my stash. I even considered picking up an Airfix AH-7 Lynx from my LHS. I should whittle down the stash first maybe...

Anyways the nice thing about this kit is that the airframe is made of only a few parts; so I've started some of the major assemblies, fixing seams and mould lines on the rotors, as well as priming the cockpit. Things are going to slow fairly soon as many of the doors, wings and missile rails are covered in raised ejector pin marks. Clean up 

As a side question; anyone know of some good AM 1:72 scale hellfires? Just wondering. I think the kit hellfires are lacking.

Rough best fit of the cockpit to the fuselage.

And beginning the priming;
