  • ONE MASSIVE BIRD

    At first I wasn't interested in anything 1/24 scale as it looked too impractical to build and display, but the impressive level of detail won me over. The engine alone is a project unto itself! I haven't even started on it yet, but its a value compared to 1/32 kits of similar subjects that cost even more (Tamiya 1/32 F4U = $150-200). This is definitely a great value for what you get, just be prepared to spend a lot of time building it.

  • A joy to build you may regret it when you are done what could replace the experiance

    It can be built without aftermarket parts if you chose. The seat belts are toy-like I think you should get better. I used Eduard metal belts. If you make the buckles dollar bill trims are the same as real cloth belts. I am turning mine into an F6F - 3 seeing the new windscreen was put on the 3 to stop fogging. I like the tri-color paint job. Some 1/32 B 17 decals will do the job. The model is the best I have seen and I do have the good ones in my stash but I am building it and there is nothing to boar you.

  • poor instructions on exhaust pipe location

    very poor pictures on where to install exhaust pipes .if all added junk is put on engine he cowl cant be put on ether you install everything & leave cowling off or skip adding it to engine if the cowl is closed. had to throw out the first one that i started with step one,the second one i started with engine-mount & nose cowl all put together before the cockpit assemby was started. Airfix makes some good 1/24 kits but these plans are not the best.

  • F6F final thoughts.

    The stressed skin is slighly overdone. Actual photos of aircraft in service show that the fuselage skin was not as stressed as the model depicts. Oxygen regulator and hose detail missing from cockpit. Which is a major detail that can be seen. Molded break lines look toy like and should have been separate parts. The kit is a good place to start for scratch builders.

  • Most detailed engine I have ever saw in a main stream plastic model kit

    The most detailed engine ever in a main stream plastic model kit. A whole lot of kit at a great price.

  • 1/24 Airfix Hellcat

    Great model by Airfix in 1/24 scale. Well engineered kit, fit if great, accuracy is spot on. So far a great kit to build, tons of parts. A super Detailers model for sure.
