F4DPhantomII Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Could it be worse than Hasegawa’s kits? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In some areas, it's on par with the Hasegawa kit, especially the intake ramp area. Overall, I think it's slightly better than the Hasegawa as far as fiddly construction, but I still probably won't build another one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
F4DPhantomII Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 At the price it is going for I’ll probably build only one along with the Tamiya F-14A Quote Link to post Share on other sites
F-16 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 After 4 months of work, here is my build of the AMK 1/48 F-14D Tomcat. I added a few items to the build... Resin wheels. P/E seat belts. Intake covers made from Tamiya tape. A radar assembly from a Hobby Boss Tomcat kit. The fit tolerances were very tight. All matting/gluing surfaces had to be sanded or the parts would not fit. There are lots of small parts that need careful attention when gluing/attaching. I was surprised how well the Hobby Boss radar set parts fit. Just a little white glue to fill in and it worked great! The model was airbrushed using MM Acrylics. I also used "Flory models dark-dirt wash" to highlight the panel lines. The decals where from the kit. Hope you like it!

Manuel J. Armas S. Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Only decals or some corrections? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tapchan Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) You seriously think they could correct something if Sio till the very end declined any shape problem, even seeing what Zactoman have shown.... Doubts, probably new box + decals + instructions. Edited May 23, 2021 by Tapchan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
F-16 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 From what I see on the box sides, no A/G weapons.? Only Aim-9, 54, 120's? No A/G stencils on the decal sheet either... Scott CNJC-IPMS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ElectroSoldier Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Re-decal and reissue as stocks are out or low Quote Link to post Share on other sites
