Smithy1961 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I wish to build a Northrop F-20 Tigershark in 1/48th scale and my choices are limited to say the least. I know Hasegawa and Monogram do a version, but has anyone tried the Freedom models option? I am looking for accuracy first as I don't mind 'working' on any other issues. Many thanks in advance.

e8n2 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 As far as I know the Hasegawa only makes a 72nd scale kit of the F-20. Later, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, but Hasegawa did rebox the Monogram kit: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/hasegawa-86163-f-20-tigershark--311874 Cheers, Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 The freeeom model kit is quite state of the art and very recommened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aidy Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 I've built the Freedom Models kit, and it mostly goes together with nicely. The major thing to watch out for is the join between front and rear fuselage halves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
