jeffryfontaine Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Updated my wish list/want list 20200411. The target audience is those modelers that like to build their subjects without pylons and stores. If you are one of this group then I would like to acquire your left over/surplus parts by purchase, trade, or as a gift. I am not looking for handouts unless you are feeling generous. I am looking for the following 1/48th scale F-86/F-100 pylon parts: From the Academy or Hasegawa 1:48th scale F-86 Sabre: All stores pylons. With emphasis on the AIM-9 Sidewinder AAM pylons. From the Trumpeter 1:48th scale F-100C/F-100D/F-100F Super Sabre kits: All stores pylons. With emphasis on the inverted "Y" shape AIM-9 Sidewinder twin launcher pylon and the center (under the fuselage) stores pylon. In addition the above I am also in search of some 1:32nd scale AIM-54 Phoenix missiles from the Trumpeter F-14 Tomcat or the Tamiya F-14 Tomcat. Or, from the Trumpeter 1:32nd scale Air to Air Weapons set (#3303). If anyone has these AIM-54 bits surplus to their needs I would like at least six if possible or more if they are available in any larger quantities. Why, you ask? I am looking for a Phoenix missile shape in 1:32nd scale for a what-if missile that can be adapted to a 1:48th scale aircraft. Call it "Scale-O-Rama" or "imagineering" for lack of a better description. I know postage SUCKS as I have endured the beat down on my wallet that had me paying more in postage than what the claimed value was on the contents. So if you are outside of the CONUS/Canada then I completely understand if you choose to not assist.

rcaf*100 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Not sure if my F-86 kit comes with any pylons, but if it does they are yours! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffryfontaine Posted April 13, 2019 Author Share Posted April 13, 2019 @rcaf*100 - Thanks, The plan is apply improvements to the Monogram 1/48th scale F-86 and F-100. The stores pylons provided are a bit soft on details or nonexistant in the case of the Sidewinder launch rail/pylon. As for the F-100, the inboard pylons are configured for the AGM-12 Bullpup missile and are not simply a matter of cutting away the little bit on the bottom of the pylon to create a bomb rack. Also the upside down "Y" shape twin Sidewinder and central fuselage stores pylon pylon would be a nice improvement to the Monogram F-100. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffryfontaine Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 zBump! Still looking for stores pylons for the F-100 Super Sabre and F-86 Sabre. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martin_sam_2000 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) Ill take a look and see what I have. Stand by... ok. I have the sidewinder mounts and missiles for the Hasegawa F-86 I will not be using, as well as the inverted "Y" mounts, missiles and TER from the trumpeter F-100. Unfortunately. I used all the other pylons on my build. Let me know. I can try in a bubble envelope and see what the damage is...price wise.

jeffryfontaine Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 Bump one last time. Also, I just purchased two F-100 kits (1 X F-100D and 1 X F-100F) but would still like to acquire additional stores pylons to try and spruce up my old Monogram F-100D kits.
