CraigSargent Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) I'd be keen to join the GB, but the only Hornet I have, that is eligible, is waiting on a set of Flight Decs 1/48 TMOTA 2003 (FLD48-03) decals. If anyone has a set they are willing to part with, would be more than ready to participate. :) Will buy, or swap for something of equal value.

bikerider Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hello, If anybody has a PE boarding ladder from a 1/48 scale Hasegawa legacy Hornet that they could part with I would be appreciative. I am working on detailing a Hobby Boss Hornet, and the supplied ladder is less than stellar. Please contact me if you can help. I have some trade bait, but not much, and would be willing to pay a couple bucks plus shipping. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DONG Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 K Academy makes the best 1/72 F-18A/C kit and no I don't have one. Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Ok I'll look for one. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike C Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 K Academy makes the best 1/72 F-18A/C kit and no I don't have one. Don Ok I'll look for one. Thanks. Get the RAAF boxing of the Academy "A" Hornet if you can still find one. It might be a bit rare since it appears to be out of production already now. The only Academy "A" Hornet that I can still find easily is the Blue Angels boxing. The only downside with the Blue Angels boxing is the lack of decals/stencils for the bombs and missiles.

It should be on it's way to me now. Edited July 18, 2014 by Bigasshammm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I built this as part of Aust/NZ Wings using the Blue Angels boxing and Leading Edge decals Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 (edited) Looks similar to the one I'll be building. Leading edge decals. Blue bird. But Canadian. Edited July 18, 2014 by tosouthern66 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tosouthern66 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 (edited) Bigasshamm Sorry I was trying to ask you a question and accadentlly edited your post, my apologies sir. I'm still trying to get used to the extra buttons that show up bing a GB mod. If you dont mind me asking what kit did you have that was a dog?

Bigasshammm Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 It was a Minicraft kit. Absolutely horrible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tosouthern66 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 (edited) Looking for a parts trade: I have the 1/72 Hasegawa F/A-18 Super Hornet with the newer style ECS. I'm looking for someone who wants to trade the older ECS type top half with me? Pm me or reply here. Edited July 19, 2014 by tosouthern66 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm looking for someone who wants to trade the older ECS type top half with me? Pm me or reply here. I actually wouldn't mind trading that with the older style ECS that I've got from VFA-102 History boxing. Here are the close up pics. There were very slight chipping on some of the sprue anchor points, despite my being very very careful. But they should be very easy to fix. I've built two of these identical kits, and I always got these chippings. Annoying. PM me if you're interested. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tosouthern66 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 (edited) Mike is that the Hasegawa VFA-102 kit #548 where you got that from? Mike I didnt realize that the VFA-102 kit had the early ECS's. I have this kit so I will trade parts with in my own stash. Thanks anyway!

You might want to double check your stash to make sure that your indeed came with the old style ECS. Otherwise, let me know ASAP if you want to trade, before I glue the fuselage.

It was given to me by a buddy along with the VFA-103 70th kit. I had helped him and his family out and when he returned from a cross country hall he brought me these two kits. I was getting ready to order the 103 kit next month and now I don't have to! Thanks for the offer bud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Neo Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 (edited) Hey guys im building my 1/48 F/A-18F but when i got the kit it was missing the AIM120's and the rails(LAU-127), im wondering if anybody has a spare ? or some LAU-117 can do(i have some maverick i can put on instead of the aim-120) Cheers Neo Edited July 19, 2014 by Neo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was E18 white box, right? I converted mine into in-flight special scheme VFA-102 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tosouthern66 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Which resin pit do you all recommend for 1/72? Looking for one that fits easy without alot of puttying to get it in. I looked at Aries and wolf pack. I will be getting the wolf pack folded wing set for a future 1/72 Hornet for this GB. So what do you all recommend? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devilleader501 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Neo let me look through my stash I think I have some aim 120's and launchers. Give me a minute though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devilleader501 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) NEO I have 3 AIM 120's and two LAU-127 launchers. Well one of them is an LAU-127 the other is exactly alike but its going to need some modification. If you want them they are yours just let me know. heres a pic. The circle in red is all that will have to be cut off and modified if you want them. Edited July 26, 2014 by Devilleader501 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
