mark73 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Just wondering is the Fujimi tomcat good? Would the fine molds one that comes as part of a magazine better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giorgio N Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Just wondering is the Fujimi tomcat good? Would the fine molds one that comes as part of a magazine better? It's a very good kit, with good details and shapes that are not bad. The Hasegawa kit is better but I like some areas in the Fujimi kit more. The cockpit for example is IMHO more effective even without the PE parts included in the Hase kits The Fine Molds kit promises to be even better, but I've not seen it yet (mine is still waiting to be delivered from Japan). The FM kit though represents a D while the one shown here is an A. The Fujimi D suffers from inaccurate rear engine areas although the exhuasts are actually better than the Hasegawa ones. As the TF30 parts are included in all boxes, I usually build my Fujimi B/D kits as late A, with the later naca style gun gas vents. For a D the Fine Molds kit is probably the best around, with Hasegawa following Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoine Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Thanks, good news anyway, whatever the marking options. Let' hope that Furball will scale down a few tomcat sheets as he's just done with phantom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truro Model Builder Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Who knows, maybe they'll rebox Fujimi's Spey-Phantom next... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giorgio N Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Saw this on the website of a Korean shop and the price was incredible, around £15 ! For a good kit like the Fujimi one and all the goodies itì's something I'd happily pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight_Flyer Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 £15 is quite good value. Yes, but why VF-84 markings all the time? JR schemes are quite popular and understandable they would go with it to maximise the sales potential. There is also that film as well - no not Top Gun, "The Final Countdown" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
