F111Fan Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 So I'm looking to build a 100 Sqn Hawk using Revell's 1/32 offering, and I'm looking to fit it out with the RAIDS system - Google has come up with a 1/48 resin example, but nothing in the larger scale. Has anyone come across these somewhere? Or scratched/bastardised one from something else? If anyone has any info that could help, I'd be most grateful! Additionally, info on where to source two decent examples of 1/32 RAF aircrew would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobski Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) If you have one from a Revell Typhoon take an ASRAAM and remove all of the fins - that should get you fairly close. I don't believe there is a RAIDS pod available aftermarket in 1/32. Edited October 18, 2017 by Bobski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F111Fan Posted October 18, 2017 Author Share Posted October 18, 2017 Not a bad shout that Bobski, I'll have an ask around and see if there are any going spare. Does that method cover off both pods I assume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feldr Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 You could try emailing Harold( AMS resin), although he mainly sells via Sprue brothers, he has been known to cast additional stuff,he may also be able to tell you if he has, or is due to cast/ ship items to them soon. Don't forget to include the hyperlink/ description of the item in question.. hth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F111Fan Posted October 19, 2017 Author Share Posted October 19, 2017 feldr, Thanks for the suggestion; I'll drop him a line! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 I asked Harold regards the pod not too long ago, he said he'll be sending a shipment to Sprue soon. Go to the product page and sign up for the email notification when back in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dads203 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Pj productions make a nice 32nd scale RAF pilot in the sitting position, I have a couple for future projects and they are nicely cast with good detail, Mastercasters did a standing RAF pilot which is also really nice, I’ve seen a few converted into sitting pilots.

F111Fan Posted October 19, 2017 Author Share Posted October 19, 2017 Kagemusha, thanks for the heads up, I've also subscribed in the wake of that info! And thank you for the pointers Dan, the PJ Productions guys look spot on - that just about clears it all up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
