PNW_Modeler Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 WOW! This is a model! Holy smokes! Whenever you open up a 39 page instruction booklet, you know you are looking at some modeling goodness. I am completely blown away by this kit and I haven't even unbagged it yet.

loftycomfort Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I have a B/D model built and a C in the stash. Yup, she's a beaut. T Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kingoalie Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Yes, WOW definitely were some of the words that came out of my mouth when I first got mine. Now if I could only get some Swiss AF decals and some time to build it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GA.modelmaker Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 you better have plenty of room for that big thing. mine is still in the box under the bed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Impatient Pete Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Yah, that has to be the nicest model I've ever seen. Even as nice as it is OOB, there are some fabulous builds going on here at ARC where guys have added and corrected things to make it even better. Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PNW_Modeler Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 you better have plenty of room for that big thing. mine is still in the box under the bed. Finding room for the Hornet is the easy part. It's the 32nd scale F-15C, F-4J and 3 F-14s that I am wondering where the heck to put Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maxtype Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The Hornet is a sweet kit,ain't it? -Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PNW_Modeler Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 The Hornet is a sweet kit,ain't it?-Dave It really is....I am almost overwelmed by the amount of parts....it's insane. The weapons alone could make a kit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Its a beaut kit, only problem I have found is 4 years after I built it the weight of the kit appears to be causing the main landing gear to sag a bit. Its rather nose high on the shelf right now. Still have an idea I should do a Canadian B model. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Williams Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 It really is....I am almost overwelmed by the amount of parts....it's insane. The weapons alone could make a kit Wait until you get to the main landing gear. Each gear leg is about 18 parts, not including the tire and hub! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Dude Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I agree, it is a nice kit! I've built 5 so far and have 5 more to go! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
