Niels Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 For decals or the kit? The kit is standard Hasegawa F-4E, and most of the markings in the kit you can get better from the aftermarket suppliers? http://www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/kits/rm/kit_rm_5978.shtml Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eli Raphael Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 The kit Niels I can't find it! Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Plenty on ebay (although I know not everyone like Ebay 😎 ) This is the most reasonably priced one I could find from my location; https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hasegawa-09805-1-48-F-4E-Phantom-Korean-Air-Force-17th-FG/123633268227?hash=item1cc91df603:g:FC8AAOSwRbtaEqNl Believe there is about 10 more currently on Ebay, possibly more depending on where in the world you are?

88phantom Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Are you looking for the slat version or non-slat? The Pro mod kit is non slat but the Korean one is slat. West Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eli Raphael Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 Need the early E, with hard wing and short cannon muzzle. All the ones found on ebay are the later version Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Short cannon muzzle is in all the Hasegawa F-4E's. For the non-slatted birds, you can remove the slats if you prefer. Or buy one F-4J and one F-4E, then swap the wings and voila - you have an early F-4E and an F-4S 🤩 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eli Raphael Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 Strange, I didn't find the pieces in my slatted E kits. Will dig in deeper.Thank you Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Eli Raphael Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 Thanks, let me look for ir before asking you, OK? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 If all other tries goes south, you should look for the Bicentennial boxing (09361) , according to this overview: https://modelingmadness.com/splfeat/kr/has48d.htm as it has the non-slatted wings in the form of Sprue L instead of the normal sprue M Currently one available on Ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/F-4E-Phantom-II-Bicentenial-1976-1-48-Hasegawa/254141375002?hash=item3b2c01a21a:g:038AAOSwrGlb0olZ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
