SAT69 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Being among the early Hasegawa releases, as I recall it's not an easy build. You've done a fine job on yours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripio Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 (edited) Hello there, I like the result, seems very smooth for me. I did different Lightnings from Frog (in Revell boxing)/Matchbox/Trumpeter/Airfix companies and I have a Sword T.5 but never met with this one personally. Nice job.

Ratch Posted January 3, 2021 Author Share Posted January 3, 2021 Thanks very much guys. I rather like Lightnings and picked this up for £4.00. The replacement decals were twice this price, but well worth the investment. It was built straight from the box (with the exception of the refuelling probe - I snapped the kit part) and was a nice build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natter Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Hasegawa F.6 = Frog re-pop I believe. Very nicely built and finished, and it's a Wattisham cab so double thumbs up from me (seven years at Wattisham, on and off). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
