Message sent on the Hase F-15 kits

Being an FNG to both airplane modeling, and aircraft in general, I have to ask, is there a link to a story regarding the Tomcats flying over Saigon?

Did anyone happen to ask what the expected MSRP would be on this kit? If they would even know at this point. Price of the ZM vs Academy would also be a factor...

I agree. I'm interested too see if this is any better than the Academy kits. If they were coming out with the long nose E and G I'd probably be more interested.

Received mine today. First rate!! One of the most comprehensive instruction sheets I've seen, the info to backdate the -6A kit to a true -6A is invaluable!

Raymond, I think this is a fantastic idea, especially for those like me that are new to aircraft modeling!

Ordered my Vietnam A-6A sheet !!! I'll be ordering the Desert Storm sheet here soon!

Price is a factor of course, but before I make a decision on whether to purchase an AMK or a Tamiya, I'll wait and see a few built. If the reviews on both are good, I'll get atleast one or two of each. All kinds of cool -A schemes that I can do. No such thing as too many good Tomcat kits...

Where can I purchase these sheets from?

I didnt notice the date.... That's my fault.

Thanks for the reply. Watching a couple sheets on Evilbay now.

Is the SuperScale sheet my only option in 48th scale to build a -153 Corsair? My buddies dad recently passed. He was with -153 on the Oriskany, as a Corsair mechanic in '68-'72. He was a big influence on all of us teenage drag racers in our circle, always willing to share his knowledge. I'd like to build a Corsair from -153 in this timeframe if possible and surprise my buddy with it.

Thanks for the answer gentlemen.

To add on a question to the original post. Will the Academy F-4C build a -D , or do I need to get the Korean F-4D kit? Sorry to hi Jack, but it seems like the place to ask.

Beautiful build! That's the bird I plan to build with my sheet.

Nice sheets!! There will be and F-8 stencil sheet coming my way shortly!

Alright!! I can finally put these George Welsh decals to use!!

I'm a Navy brat. I had A-6's for alarm clocks living up at NAS Whidbey as a kid in the 80's.. Plus Navy color schemes and squadron markings are just more interesting but I do have a few AF jets to build as well.

The Academy kit, #12259, F-16A/C... Is this an Italeri, a Kinetic or an Academy original?

I just had alclad applied over Tamiya gloss black with no issues

For your first build,that looks simply stunning!!! I too am in the midst of my first build. I chose a simple Tamiya 1/48 A6m2 Zero, and I completely agree, rescribing is a horrible way to spend your modeling time!

Thanks for the info!

I read somewhere that eduard will be doing a zoom or set for the italeri a-10c sometime soon. Don't know if that helps you.
