Dave Roof Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Holding a sample in my hands now and comparing it to the Academy F-4J. The Z-M kit is so much nicer and just captures the look of the Phantom better than any other kit I have seen. The photos posted on line simply don't do it justice.

Craig Baldwin Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 This one is a bit off the radar compared to the talk of some of the other kits being mentioned. But I am more likely to buy rather than most. More kit details especially would be appreciated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Roof Posted August 20, 2016 Author Share Posted August 20, 2016 More kit details especially would be appreciated. I'll send an email and ask exactly what I can mention on the forum. Will let you know as soon as I hear back from ZM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fulcrum1 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 How much? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Roof Posted August 20, 2016 Author Share Posted August 20, 2016 How much? No idea. All I have is a test shot with no instructions, box or decals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JeffreyK Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Anything about the SF tanks? Do they have a constant width or are they getting wider towards the front as the photos seemed to suggest? Jeffrey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ben Brown Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Based on the photos I've seen, it will still need Jeffrey's canopy details but not much else. I'm looking forward to this one!!! Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 How many people here have actually built a Z-M kit? I have their P-51, it's beautiful in the box but I have not started it. Curious to hear any build experiences. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ben Ben, I think I saw some sort of insert block for inside the canopies included, but not sure how detailed it is. But posable stabilators with PE cover plates would be a nice feature as well, wouldn't it? We'll see what's needed when the kit arrives. I tried to email Christopher from ZM about the kit, but it looks like his email has changed. Dave, just to be sure, I was talking about the kit - I know the real tanks have a constant width centre section, but the ZK kit ones look like they get wider towards the front.
