This detail set from Aires features a resin and photo etch M.B. Mk GQ-7A ejection seat for the F-104 from Italeri. This detail set includes;
The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free. The instructions are in the usual line drawing format that Aires is famous for and which are so easy to follow. You will be required to sometimes cut away detail on the kit parts to fit these parts. You will be required to fold the photoetch in this set, but if you have one of the Hold & Fold photo etch benders from The Small Shop, then this will be an easy process. They have a variety of benders for sharp corners as well as rounded corners and in many different sizes. This seat is loaded with detail and the seat belts and buckles are a kit in themselves. I was quite impressed with the level of detail on the resin parts. This seat will be a fantastic addition to the Italeri F-104 Starfighter. You can purchase this and other fine resin detail items directly from Aires or from the many retailers that carry their products. I would like to thank Aires for providing me with this product sample. Steve Bamford
