I've been storing this kit since I was a kid with the intention of building it, but I don't think that will ever happen. So, time to let it go. The box is in good shape and all parts are sealed and as they were originally packaged in the box. I never fully unpacked the kit. Kit number is S-2002-4500 Asking $200 OBO +shipping (paypal only) Chris

Very nice!

Thanks guys! My kids really enjoy the builds, especially when we do a video. These bandai kits are pretty awesome. I definitely want to build a few more. Chris

Thanks!

Here are a few pics. My daughter built the X-wing, I built the snowspeeder and my son built the AT-ST.

I did a little Star Wars builds with my kids. These are the Bandai X-wing, Snowspeeder, and AT-ST. This was my first time building a Bandai kit and they are super nice! Parts fit was just about perfect and no glue was necessary based on the press fit design and the detail is awesome. Lots of small parts though which my kiddos needed a little help with. We did a little video of the build so, we hope you enjoy! :)

Hi Ed, I will take it! I'm sending you a PM. Chris

Thanks! :)

My kids love making build videos with me when we have the chance to. I'm usually featuring scale RC stuff, but I love plastic modeling and have built them since I was a kid. So, I figured we'd have some fun and build some of our favorite comic book characters as Polar Lights had some pretty cool kits I was able to get a hold of. I built The Wolverine, my 11 year old daughter built Captain America, and my 9 year old son built Superman. Plastic models and super powers, what more could one ask for?! ;)/> Chris http://thercgeek.com

I'm hoping someone out there has the F-16 A/B NSAWC Vipers #2 sheet from TwoBobs in their stash they'd be willing to sell? Please let me know! Chris

found one! :) Thanks louie!

I'm hoping to find one of the few Hasegawa F-4S kits out there. Would love to get a hold of the Midway low vis kit, but will take what I can find. Thanks! Chris

Bump Hoping someone can help?

I was curious if anyone out there might have the above Afterbuner Decals sheet? I'm interested in the Executive Officer’s aircraft from 1982 (Bureau number 153840, Modex 102) primarily, so the decals don't necessarily need to be complete. Mostly interested in the decals for that aircraft and the complete instructions. I appreciate the help! Chris

I just came across this thread while researching the bronco models MQ-1 and thought I could shed some light on some of the questions. Regarding the wheel wells, they are flat black. It's all unpainted carbon fiber in there and the interior skin portions are typically flat based on how they are autoclaved. The notched tails are a relatively new mod (within the last few years I think). All of the new aircraft coming off of the line since that time has had them. I'm not sure if all of pre-existing aircraft have been retrofitted or not though. The large chin fairing is only if the aircraft i

Cool, thanks guys!

Hi all, I was curious if any of you guys new what the function of the light is on the Mirage vertical stabilizer? Is it a beacon light? What's interesting is that it's split red/clear top to bottom. Any thoughts?? Here's a link to a pic showing the light I'm curious about on a Mirage IIIS Chris

Actually, the Air Force F-4C/D always had the inboard LE flap as I recall. The Navy and Marine birds did not. I'm sure the early Navy birds had the functional inboard LE flap, but my understanding is that it didn't last long. Chris

Doug, Not sure too much about the panel lines, but regarding the LE flaps (they are LE flaps, not slats), only the 2 outboard LE flaps deploy (this would be the middle and outboard LE flap on the AF F-4C/D) and if I remember correctly both to about a 60 degree angle. The TE flap deploys to about 60 and the aileron droops about 15 degrees. This would represent a full flap landing configuration. I'll have to double check the deflection angles as this is off the top of my head. Chris

Hi Jake, Well, I certainly would like to see something like this done, but can understand where you are coming from. I don't think though that there is truly a great modelers resource on this airplane so I think that it would be a welcome addition and would kind of fill a void in the market. I've got a few hundred pics I've taken of the F-4S's here in the SD area that I'd donate to the cause if it would help. Chris hmmm, still not able to upload pics...maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Hi Guys, On drawing that I have come across that is the best I've found thus far is in one of the Osprey Combat Aircraft Series books. Unfortunately though, only shows the B/N and J....no S since it's all vietnam combat stories. @ Jake, Sign me up! It would be nice to have a good deffinitive resource on the airplane, especially the F-4S as this seems to be the least documented. There are lots of books out there on the F-4, but nothing I would consider a really great modeling resource on the Navy Phantoms, especially the late phantoms. @ Skull Leader, I actually happen to have both decal

Hi All, Thanks for the replies. I'm mostly looking for geometry info that I can scratch build to on a 1/10 scale F-4S project I'm working on. Most everything that I've come across has been questionably accurate to say the least...and you don't have to look hard to see most of the inaccuracies. ;) Was hoping there might be a drawing or book floating out there somewhere I was unaware of. I suppose I'll have to mix and match to get what I'm looking for from what I have. Thanks for the help! @ Jens, That is a SWEET F-4!! :lol: Absolutely beautiful! Which decals did you use? This is the

Anyone? Or am I just ...

Hi Guys, I'm curious if anyone might know of any decent F-4S drawings out there? There is one in the SAM F-4 Phantom II Part 2 book, but it's missing some of the characteristic F-4S external details (most notable is the lack of the strap on the bottom of the wing) which is some of the information I'm looking for. Also, is the Hase F-4S the best representation out there? I appreciate any help. Chris

Hey, I'll take it, I'm actually looking to do the blue 11 aircraft.
