Revell A400 sprue shots.

[nigelr32]

Hi all,

I went to my local shop today for some Brass rod for the axles on my A380-900 conversion, and spotted this..... I didn't know it was out yet?? (Yes, that is the new London Bus in the background).

I've put the Revell 1/144 A380 box in front, just to give you an idea of it's size.

Now, Mike (Admin) has said he would do a full review of this kit, but for those impatient ones, I thought I'd give you a couple of sprue shots.

This is a Fuselage half, with a revell C-17 for comparison.

The one piece upper wing. Yes, that's C-17 wings under it. Thankyou Revell for the one piece wing.

Here's the interior sections, laid out as the C-17 kit, with seperate inner walls and floor.

The nice crisp detail on the floor.

There two choices when it comes to the props, feathered or in flight. There are two of these sprues.

Here are the wheels and tyres..... they look dodgy to me??

The decal sheet

The first part of the painting guide includes templates for the upper walkways on the fuselage.

This is the first option offered for the kit. The development plane.

Now, here's the funny part... the other two options are What if's????

Overall, this looks like a nice kit. I saw it built at Telford on the Revell stand, and it is impressive built.When you open the box, youll wonder if you've bought a 1/48th kit??

Nige

P.S. The shop didn't have the Brass Rod!!!
