Review Summary

The reviews consistently highlight significant fit issues with the kit, particularly with the engine, fuselage, and wing assemblies, often requiring extensive sanding, putty, and adjustments to achieve proper alignment. Many noted the need for additional ballast in the front to prevent the model from being tail-heavy, and while the decals were generally of good quality and easy to apply, some felt the lack of stencil decals and seat belt details was a drawback. Overall, despite the frustrating build process, the final result was often deemed satisfactory, though the kit is better suited for modelers with intermediate to advanced skills.

Be prepared for a lot of work

By: CS

The parts do not fit well, especially the engine fitting into the fuselage, the wing top and bottom halves, and the front and rear fuselage. The most infuriating bit is that the fuselage is molded in 4 pieces, which causes a lot of fit problems. This is also extremely tail heavy, so you have to weigh the front down. While the end product resembles a Mig-15, the build process was slightly frustrating. At 1/48 scale, this is also pretty small when it is complete. If you want to tackle this, get your putty and sandpaper out.

KOREAN WAR

By: nylonval

THIS WAS A FAIRLY SIMPLE KIT THE ONLY PROBLEM WAS FITTING THE ENGINE PROPERLY WITHIN. SOME SANDING WILL BE NEEDED TO ALIGN THE INDIVDUAL PARTS. THE DECALS WERE STURDY & WENT ON QUICKLY. I BOUGHT THIS KIT TO GO ALONG IN A DOGFIGHT W/ITS ADVERSARY DURING THE KOREAN WAR ; THE F-86F SABRE ! THEY LOOK GREAT TOGTHER & I'M HAPPY W/THE RESULTS ! VAL

Fit issues, but overall OK.

By: crawfordwilson3 (Durham, NC)

This kit had some real fit issues. It needed a lot of sanding too. In the end, it did not look bad, but it is the only 1./48 scale MiG-15 out there.
