"Fun Quality Build"

dswebb1

This was a fun kit, lots of options, with the usual Hasegawa quality. The fit was great. Interesting decal options. Not overly complex and definitely not large so can be built quickly.

"enjoyable build"

wayne (Birmingham AL)

the kit shows its age in some ways. there were a few fitment issues, but nothing even a novice modeler couldn't handle. all in all it built up nice and I enjoyed it. I do wish hasegawa would include armaments for their kits. bomb racks and such.

"Good"

Matthew M. (Orofino Id)

The model kit was as expected good quality No pilot though which is okay I will order a aftermarket Areobonus to complete the model. All the parts are precise molds no flash or warps typical Hasegwa quality no complaints I would build another one Well the decals are okay but it would be nice to see other options of other country A4 Skyhawk Operators because there are but the ones supplied to the model is fine other than that good model kit.

"John McCain"

kennethlinger (Raleigh, NC)

As a prior service member and a disabled combat veteran with united states army, I found this build to be a historical build for me. I used the A4M Skyhawk with John McCains aircraft markings. This model went together very well and the decal placement I had to use a book of the A4 Skyhawk. I enjoyed this build thoroughly.

Markings

One decal sheet with markings for two aircraft
1: VMA-331 "Bamble Bees", September 1976.
2: VMA-214 "Blacksheep", Iwakuni AB, 1977.
