Great news for the future in those pictures. As I just posted on ARC, there are F-4N DECMs on the sprue with the F-4J and S. There are a ton of good kits to build thick winged Phantoms with,,,,,,,,but, only two kits to build state of the art F-4B/N. Having another option soon will help with the ole decal stash. |

What's the deal with the box art, all explode-y? Does it come with firecrackers? I don't read Korean, but there are a lot of "1/48"s in the captions. |

Jeff Time spent modeling is not deducted from your lifespan. I spent most of my money on beer and women. The rest of it I just wasted. | |

I think the box art is trying to show the snap together feature of the kit. |

Yeah, I'm a little leery of the "snap-tight" nature of the kit. We'll see I reckon.

we'll see indeed. The Zvezda Bf 109F is a really nice kit despite it being a snap-fit kit. I hope it will be a nice kit. The Hasegawa molds are way past their prime. |

Looks more or less OK, but prefer to wait until more detailed pictures show up to rate it. Wonder if they corrected the panel lines on the tailplanes for starters. Why, oh why, couldn't they tool these new kits just like they did with their beautiful F-8s? :wacko: Instead of trying to decide if I am seeing a half empty or half full glass, I wish I could be seeing a full one, which so far I don't! :angry: Jorge. |
