The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. This set is massive and very inclusive. The
3 pages on instructions carefully walk you through the whole assembly process.
WOW!!!!......This set seems to
cover every area I would want to detail on the F-8J Crusader....and it super
details those areas very well. This set is well worth picking up if you
plan to build the F-8J Crusader from Trumpeter.
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.
