hasegawa f-1

Oct 20, 2003 2 Replies

Does anyone know how many mouldings of this kit they have out? is there only one (older) moulding, or perhaps a newer one as well? I'm a little confused by the significant difference in prices of various boxes :) Also details on the kit would be welcome (raised vs recessed panel lines etc), as I haven't been able to find a review. thanx in advance :)

You're talking about the 1/72 JASDF F-1 fighter, right? I have only seen one set of moldings for this kit. The range of prices is probably due to the availability of 'special' boxings with non-standard decals. The only difference in the plastic is with the 'One-piece Canopy' version, which has, naturally, a one-piece canopy molding. The kit itself is standard early-to-mid eighties Hasegawa, with fine raised panel lines, pretty nice exhausts, blanked-off intakes (about 1/2 inch inside the intake), and adequate cockpit and landing gear detail. The T-2 kit is, of course, very similar.
