Big kit - Great Build

By: F1Boomer@comcast.net

Trumpeter kits can be hit or miss, and almost every kit has its ups and downs. There are plenty of reviews on line if you are looking for specifics. But as far as I'm concerned, it is a great kit. I thoroughly enjoyed the build. I had a couple of resin upgrade sets, but ended up not using them, except for the ejection seat, which I used only because I hate to build up the seats, I'm lazy, and I really like the details of resin seats. That said, the kit seat is nice. No real fit issues, and really good details. Variable angle wing is nice, if a bit simplified. No real complaints. Note: this is a big model - 20 long and 14 wingspan.

1/35 F8J from Trumpeter

By: martinmrey

This is an excellent model by Trumpeter. The molding is first class and dimensions are accurate. They deliver a quite big decal sheet for two planes. Highly recommended !
