SteveCollins Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 With apologies to Ross McMillan of SAC and Ed Kinney who wrote this. Entirely my error this did not get published. Steve Product: Scale Aircraft Conversion 1/32nd, 1/48th, and 1/72nd new GEAR PRODUCTS Reviewed by: Ed Kinney IPMS # 2989 MSRP: Please see individual pricing Manufacturer: Scale Aircraft Conversions Product supplied by: Ross McMIllan Website: www.scaleaircraftconversions.com Recommendation: Most high 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 · #32059 - P-51 Landing Gear (Trum) - replacement for 1/32 Trumpeter Includes corrected wheels, gear doors and main gear hydraulic lines MSRP $ 21.95 · #48156 – RQ-4B Global Hawk Landing Gear – replacement for 1/48th Skunkmodel MSRP $ 16.95 · #48157 – F8F Bearcat Landing Gear and Wing Hinges (HB) Replacement for 1/48th Hobby Boss MSRP $ 16.95 · #48158 – F-8 Crusader Landing Gear (RM) – correction for 1/48th Revell/Monogram MSRP $ 16.95 · #72039 – P-39 Landing Gear and Ballast (Aca) – replacement for 1/72 Academy MSRP $ 12.95 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 !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
