NEW PRODUCTS – DECEMBER 2011

 

Well, here it is mid December with Christmas just around the corner and expanding the seemingly never ending line of quality landing gear replacements come – six new offerings in 3 scales. This month the inclusion of some extras is notable. Both the 1/32nd gear for the Trumpeter P-51 and the 1/72nd replacement for the P-39 come with some really nice extras as shown below:

· # 32058 – J2M3 Raiden Landing Gear – replacement for Hasegawa MSRP $ 14.95

As always, these are cast metal parts that require very little cleanup and in many cases are nearly mandatory due to either weight or accuracy issues with the original kits. I do, however, detect a subject that seems to be missing this month – a corrected replacement for Santa’s Sleigh. I guess they must have been accurate to begin with. Many thanks to Ross McMIllan for the review samples ---…….Happy Holidays !!

SAC produces great stuff! I used the gear SAC produced for the Airfix 48th TSR-2. Well detailed, strong, excellent fit.... good stuff.
