This latest release
from Aires
is the Mistel 2 conversion set version 2. This set permits you to convert
a Ju-88 into a flying bomb with a Fw 190A-8 or F-8 riding on top of the Ju-88
piggyback as a guidance for the Ju-88. This set includes the resin warhead
that will replace the cockpit nose area on the 1/72 Hasegawa Ju-88. You also get all
the struts and braces for the top of the Ju-88 to secure it to the underside of
the Fw-190 that
will be riding piggyback. This set has the short
"probe" on the end of the warhead.

The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. There is 2 pages of instructions to guide
you though the conversion process.
The Mistel variants have always
held my interest due to their delicate appearance and it's good to see this set
and the other Mistel conversion sets from Aires.
You can purchase this and other
fine resin detail items directly from Aires
or from the many retailers that carry their products. A list of some of
those retailers can be found here.
