WARDOG Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Hi Thomas, There are some major differences between the Fujimi and Hasegawa E-2C kits, mainly between the way the wings and empennage (tail plane) are designed to mate with the fuselage. You can go to these locations for a look at what I mean; www.super-hobby.com/products/E-2C-Hawkeye-2000-VAW-115.html for the Fujimi kit and www.super-hobby.com/products/E-2C-HAWKEYE-J.A.S.D.F..html for the Hasegawa kit. Sorry I couldn't figure out how to make these direct links without messing up the text. P.M. me if you might be interested in a Fujimi E-2C (old mold). I have two and am using one as a donor for the Falcon vac-form C-2 conversion. Take Care, WARDOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WARDOG Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Thanks Ray, How did you do it? I guess using a tablet instead of PC makes a difference. WARDOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tempestfan Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 How did you do it? There's a button in the toolbar just to the right of the "insert/remove numbered list" (2nd row, 9th button) called "link" which gives you a nice tidy embedded link. Double click the word/text you want to have the link with, click the link button, insert your link there - et voilà. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WARDOG Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Thanks again guys. No toolbar with that on my tablet but I do think I've seen it on the PC version. I've been using my tablet to check on things because it more convenient and I can relax in bed while browsing! Cheers, WARDOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tempestfan Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 You may be right, it's also lacking when I reply via smartphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOUGHNUT Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Always fancied doing the Hawkeye / Greyhound conversion. I have the Falcon Vac conversion but always put off by the lack of squadron markings. Anybody know of any after market decals sheets ? Also has anybody ever attempted to build 1:72 Hawkeye / Greyhound with folded wings, any after market parts available ?

Jabba Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Wolfpack D and Goffey models do a wing fold set for the Hasegawa and Fujimi kits. I have the Goffey one but have not attepted the conversion as yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eerie Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Any updates on your final build? I m thinking of getting the RVHP kit. But the description states that it’s for Hasegawa Hawkeye. I have a fujimi Hawkeye 2000. I will be using Wolfpack folded wings which are meant for Hasegawa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
