neil5208 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) Looking for a 1/72 av8b but there doesn't seem to much avalible in gods scale so I'm looking to convert airfixs gr7/9 kit. I have sprues from the airfix gr5 kit which has the earlier nose and the av8b gun pack which should allow for an earlier av8b night attack version. Does anyone do a conversion for av8b+/++, i.e radome, flair packs, seat, cockpit? Thanks Neil Edited December 30, 2018 by neil5208 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NealParkes Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I’m sure Hasegawa do a decent ish AV-8B. And thy can be found for a decent price too. https://www.scalemates.com/search.php?fkSECTION[]=Marketplace&q=McDonnell+Douglas+AV-8B+Harrier+II+hase*&fkSCALE[]="1:72" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hook Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Hannants is not the only source - for the version with the flare saddle packs you'd want this boxing, several purchase links available: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/103187-hasegawa-00454-av-8b-harrier-ii-plus HTH, Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 It will definitely do not go cheaper when adding a conversion set. So unless you absolztely want to build an Airfix model.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil5208 Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 Thanks for the advice, I'll wait for hannants as I have some gift vouchers to spend and get the hasegawa kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
