dhtmo Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Hi guys, I'm looking at am A-10 as my next kit. Can anyone recommend a kit in 1/72? Best options seem to be Academy, Hasegawa or Hobbyboss. Cheers for now, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.C. Bahr Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I believe the Academy is just a copy of the Hasegawa, but with the panel lines being recessed. Not sure about Hobbyboss, but I picked up a couple of Revell of Germany issues, which I believe are re-boxed Italeri kits. I believe they were considered to be the newest most accurate and up-to-date kit at the time they were released several years back. Their larger scale brethren (1/48) from Italeri had issues with the number of fan blades in the engine intakes, but I'm not sure the 1/72 ones had this same issue. Others will chime in shortly I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clift Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I have the Italeri kit, which is a re-release of the Revell AG kit. During the course of my research, both came highly recommeded. I managed to score an Italeri kit for a very good price anc have no complaints. HTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an Italeri mold that was in a Revell box at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
