Does this kit have a new fuselage? The older F-105 kits did not have the dorsal spine. According to Revell:

When the F-105 Thunderchief entered service in 1958, it was the heaviest single-engine combat aircraft. Today, the F-105 remains history's heftiest fighter, weighing close to 50,000 pounds (23,000 kg). It also packed a heavy punch-up to 14,000 lb of ordnance. Despite its weight, the F-105 could still achieve Mach 2 speeds. The Thunderstick II variant was equipped with and upgraded radar and target acquisition set that allowed it to bomb from 15,000 feet with incredible accuracy. This kit features a detailed cockpit with pilot figure and waterslide decals.

Go to the Scalemates page for this kit, scroll down and you'll see two reviews. The one from Model Kits Review has full sprue shots. It looks to me like Revell modified the Monogram tooling.
