NealParkes Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Does anybody know anything about this one, I haven't even heard or seen anything on social media. It would be great if they do make one, seeing what their F-15E looks like I'd think they would be able to do a decent job of the Tomcat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric B. Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 (edited) Hi That is great news It really looks like what will become a beautiful kit. Having in mind their 1/72nd scale F-15E also leads me to the same belief. I don't know what the connexions between Far East (Chinese?) brands are but some aspects of kit conception and details remind me of the 1/48th scale AMK F-14D kit especially in the wing area. Just hoping we will not have to wait too long Plus a cautious scan of parts seems to indicate that an F-14A kit (including an early block) is to follow (see beaver tail, different wheel types, what looks like two set of tails etc....)

fewr9fkr9595 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Interesting/clever parts breakdown and the version specific frames/sprues suggests more releases in the future. Some parts look better executed than on the finemolds kit too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robertone139 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I am not 100% convinced by the spoilers/flaps combination. It does not seem to match the cad drawings and the real aircraft configuration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocoolname Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I just hope this doesn't make them take their eye off the ball with the 1/48 kit. We really need GWH to step up as we don't have enough F-14's in 1/48. There's only the Revell, Italeri, Hasegawa, Academy, Fujimi, Hobbyboss and Tamiya kits available. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverkite Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 the F-15 comparison is kinda interesting, too bad I can't read chinese and I never understood how baidu board works... Luigi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios16v Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I'll probably be keeping an eye on these. Surprisingly I don't have many (only 1 Tomcat in each scale actually) in my possession right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantome Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Seems a bit disappointing to be honest. No rivet detail, panel lines are a bit on the thick side. Even the Hasegawa seems to have finer detail and it's 30 years old. Seems like its got nothing against the Fine Molds kit. Shame, because their F-15 is absolutely stunning.

Open the link and look at the pictures of the actual kit. The ones seen in this thread above are of a 3D printed verification, not even close to being representative of the kit. If you look at the linked sprue shots, they are on par with the F-15 kits. Hoops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speak for yourself, I just landed a Hasegawa 1/48 F-14D for a 'score'. It's now being prepped to soak up a load of AM I had lying around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
