anyone have the cockpit glass from a testor's ju 188 they could trade, sell, or give me? a loan would also work as i could vac form a set. or more if you wanted some also. i had hoped to mod a matchbox one, but that was a no go.

replace it when you can improve on it for under $4.00?
Pat
Squadron's one is for the Italari one, and that's the Testors version.
Pat
yes, but is the testors the same as the revell? i can't seem to get a strait answer. perhaps tom y knows?......cough, cough. but thanks.
i screwed up because of the box color. i have the revell. somehow i don't think it's the same. i tried the matchbox one, in case, and no go. appreciate your help...
Yup, and they are both the same as the Italeri one. Around 3/4 of the way down this page:

that helps a great deal. danke!
Possibly the Testors kit is the same. I once had the Revell/Italeri version and may have the instructions & box art scanned. I'll have to check.

With all the glass area on the vacuformed canopy, you now have a good reason to superdetail the cockpit, as it should be quite visible.
Pat
to the best of my limited abilities, you bet.
Yeah, all three (Testors, Revell, Italeri) are the same kit.

I found that over here:

is a lot of fun to read. The Matchbox one didn't even include the transparent windows for the ventral gunner position, which really sucked. I never even finished mine because of that.
Pat
Since I don't have the box art (didn't check instructions) I'm glad to have the confirmation.

Just checked the paper inventory and I have the kit number listed as H-2010. That's one of the largest H- numbers I've ever seen. IIRC, the rocket & missile kits were in the H-18xx series.
