GT Resin Products new 1/48 F-4 Seamless Intake Line!!


Recommended Posts

I am pleased to announce our new line of 1/48 scale resin seamless intake line.    We are launching sets for the Zoukei-Mura,  Academy/Eduard, & Hasegawa brand kits.   All three sets will feature:

  • Seamless resin Intake sets pressure cast in White resin
  • Highly detailed splitter plates with separate inner and outer parts.  This allows you to paint behind the outer splitter plate and then easily install it at final assembly
  • The Hasegawa set includes pitot parts for the intakes. 
  • Each set contains USAF and USN fan faces
  • Zoukei Mura Intakes work with either the kit engines or the supplied intake fans
  • The ZM intakes are drop in installation.
  • Academy Eduard just require slight sanding to remove the protruding portion of the fuselage spacer that fits into a relief on the Kit Academy Splitter plates,  otherwise they are drop in.   Hasegawa requires some work but still easy with our detailed instructions and support photos.   Our new tool intakes offer more detail than the old CE and other brands that are int he market place.

 

Price is $25 plus shipping.    Please see pictures of these exciting new products at our Web Site:

Also, Check out the two models I have in the Display case and the F-4S build to view the final result and the installation of the intakes.  

 

Thx,

 

Gary

I have the GT Resin intakes for the Z-M kit, XMM intakes for the Academy kits, and some CE, DMold, and Rhino intakes for the Hasegawa kits sitting in front of me. The GT intakes look very good compared to the others, and even have faint, raised lines to show where to place the intake RWR antennae. It will just take a swipe with a fine sanding stick to remove them if you're not using the antennae. Yes, the intakes do drop right in.

 

Intakes for the Academy kit that fit better than XMM's would be great. One of XMM's dropped in, while the other took a lot of massaging and never really fit all that well.

 

Any intakes for the Hasegawa kits will require a little more work, due to the way the fuselage halves are molded. A Dremel comes in handy with these.

 

Gary, any word on when canopy interior details for the Z-M kits might be available?

 

Cheers!

...my Eduard F-4B/N also has XMM intakes, mine did fit like a glove!
