old_newbie Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I see the Revell 1/48 F-4E is available on E-bay for around $18-20. Is the model any good? Is the basic shape accurate? Fit OK? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BMH Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Depends which Revell 1/48 F-4E it is. If it's the RM ProMod with a painting for box art, grab it. It's a reboxed Hasegawa hard wing F-4E and it's a great kit. If it's the 1970s Revell kit with photographs for box art, it's a 1/48 pantograph of their old 1/32 kit, and it's useful as a paint mule or junior's first model, but $20 plus shipping is not a good deal for what you get.
