2007年販売のウイングキットコレクションvol.1の震電と比較してみた。旧型の方もモールドが綺麗で出来は良いが、新型の方はモールドは勿論のこと機体のシャープ具合が向上しキャノピーがよりリアルになっているので期待が高まる。機首部分の合わせ目が異なるので使い回しではないみたい。 #144スケモ

 

I compared it with the 2007 Wing Kit Collection vol.1 Shinden. The old model also has a beautiful mold and is well made, but the new model has improved sharpness of the fuselage as well as the mold, and the canopy has become more realistic, so expectations are rising. It seems that it is not reused because the seams of the nose part are different. #144スケモ
