The Hasegawa F-4G is superb!
Standard Wild Weasel scheme included in the decals as well
as a European Lizard wraparound. Thats one pretty kit.
I would have to go with F-4’s, any variant will do. Definately the Hasegawa kits though. I’ve got about 20 of them sitting on the shelf for “someday”.
My favorite kit of all-time is Trimaster’s Me 262. They are neither easy to find or build, though.
For mainstream kits, I prefer Accurate Miniatures, Eduard, DML, and Hasegawa.
Accurate Miniatures - Grumman Avenger
Eduard - Bell P-39
DML - Focke-Wulf FW 190 (A & D)
Hasegawa - Bf 109 (E, F, G)
Despite the fact that it’s lacking in detail and has raised panel lines, I gotta say the SR-71’s a pretty cool kit.
I’m with eagle. It’s shameful, I see a Hasegawa F-4 and I always buy it!! My stash is infested with 'em. But then the Hasegawa A-4 family is a close second. [:P]
The Tamiya Swordfish is one of the best engineered kits I have ever seen. It was a refreshing change from the Classic Airframes, LTD, Azur and other short-run stuff I usually build.
That’s it Grenadier, the more Phantoms the better. Besides, isn’t the A-4 just the attack version of the F-4?[;)]
Hasegawa Arado Ar234 is a good model of a truly amazing and remarkable airplane. Tamiya Heinkel He219 is a very nice kit of a terrific nightfighter, a very interesting modelling subject. And I can hardly wait for the Trumpeter Focke-Wulf Fw200 … not a very effective warplane, but the first civilian airplane able to perform non-stop New York-Berlin flights even before WWII.
