"Vintage kit features good detail but raised panel lines"
james.white (Portland, Oregon, USA)
Other reviewers have pointed out that this old 1985 beauty has its quirks. I had to do significant putty work at the jet intakes and on the nose. The sanding combined with the raised panel lines made it impossible for someone of my limited skills to restore the detail. Having said all that, the fit was otherwise very good and the results were striking. I would like to have seen more detail in the exhaust nozzles, and their fit onto the fuselage required some serious effort due to the misalignment of the fuselage top/bottom (more sanding). 2-color instructions were clear and sufficiently detailed. If you are interested in my approach to the kit, I posted a video of my build at https://youtu.be/qyuuG6c0ERI

"F4E PHANTOM II"
wdhinds1968 (Oliver Springs Tn)
A VERY GOOD KIT, MY FAVORITE PLANE OF ALL TIME, PARTS FIT WELL, NO PROBLEMS WITH KIT

 
"The Best 1/72 F-4E!"
Ace Cobra
This is the best 1/72 F-4E on the market because the overall design is the most accurate. Great surface detail and plenty of armament to put under the fuselage! Comes with a decal sheet for 2 options. Both options offer 2 different camo ideas!

 
"Where are the missiles??"
fosk
This Hasegawa kit is from 1985. It does make into a good looking F-4, just know it's not going to fall together. This one's going to need some sanding and filling, filling and sanding. The kit comes with 5 sprues molded in beautifully polished gray plastic and 1 clear sprue. The fuselage has nicely molded raised panel lines and rivet detail, however some of this detail gets sanded away with poorly fitting seams. The canopy is a one piece deal, so no option for having it open. Parts have some flash and ejector pin marks. The ordinance options are pretty limtied: 3 fuel drop tanks, 4 sparrows, and 2 generic looking bombs (maybe napalm canisters). There are no sidewinders. Step 5 of the instructions show AIM-4D missles as an option, but no AIM-4D missiles are provided with the kit. There are no decal options for a vietnam era aircraft. Overall a good kit. Fit is just OK, but with a little patience can be made into a nice F-4.
