The landing gear is messy and prone to flashes and poor molding, the cockpit has issues with the paint and transparencies, the tail is secured with only one pin and is therefore wobbly, the wing sweepback angle is completely incorrect, and there are no underbody detailing in the back at all. The stores...are ridiculous. 2 Marconi Sky Shadow pods and 2 droptanks (which has the pylons integrated and has ludicrously thin attachment pins that snaps off easily). <br />This is not a "Tonka" kit. <br /><br />The Mirage, yeah, requires cleanups around the intake, the cockpit seems too wide, and both the Taiwanese and Peruvian models have in-flight refueling pods.<br /><br />I would say - if you can get both models somewhere else, skip this series. It's a bit of a dog.WANg Gaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07377707159254963285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20128243.post-36285468104840497712013-01-24T21:40:31.128+00:002013-01-24T21:40:31.128+00:00is the swing wing mechanism on the Tornado good? ...is the swing wing mechanism on the Tornado good?

Each kit will have to be completely disassembled, heavily cleaned up by stripping the glue, shaving parts down, and filling in major gaps. The canopies will also have to be re-done, most likely by scratch-building your own. The canopy on the Mirage is as much a joke, as are the air intakes. They just don't fit and will easily take a couple of hours to fix. <br /><br />I'm not sure why anyone would warm up to this lot, other than the fact that they're cheap and will probably be on ebay for years to come at half price. But in order to make them presentable, you'll probably spend more time fixing them than if you were to build one from ground up. <br /><br />About the only part they got right was the Mirage & Eurofighter wings. They're actually very nicely done. However, a nice wing alone isn't enough. Still, you can't expect too much for this price. Then again, Revell's Rafale is also priced low, yet exceptional...badgernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20128243.post-18242252823368061132010-01-06T12:07:24.311+00:002010-01-06T12:07:24.311+00:00J-14 aircraft hi-res images:

The Tornado is OK and has both the under nose pods. The Mirage is very nice but a little loose around the air intakes - nothing a little fettling will sort.<br /><br />David - BigRegAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
