I received email from VFS. And it is the same kit with these editions: plus they have seatbelts, PE wire harness and update sets for the ‘M', AND an autographed profile from the pilot = Russell S. Kyler

This is a comparison of the new Revell Fw 190F-8 against the Hasegawa Fw 190F-8 so folks can decide which kit they prefer. Anything questionable was checked against photographs and other information to determine which kit (if either) got it right.
 
Obviously, the full engine and separate control surfaces of the Revell kit are big plusses. And, the low price of the Revell kit in the US makes it hard to pass up. But, not everyone builds their models with everything hanging open. And, elsewhere in the world, the new Revell kit costs almost as much as the Hasegawa.
 
This is not intended to be an in-depth scrutiny of either kit's accuracy. Rather, it is a direct comparison from a modeler's standpoint in an effort to clear up some of the myths, misconceptions and hype already associated with this new kit. Also, these were just the things that I was looking at. Your mileage may differ. If so, please feel free to document it and share it here.
 
The Hasegawa kit's overall accuracy is widely reputed to be quite good, with the notable exceptions of prop, spinner and late upper fuselage gun cover shapes (along with some other, minor things). This is why the Hasegawa kit was chosen as the baseline for checking out the new Revell kit. Overall engineering, shapes and sizes are very similar between the two kits - almost to the point of the parts being interchangeable. Almost. The following images are being posted merely to illustrate the differences between the two kits so that the buyer can make up his/her own mind.

Decals in the Hunter, Lynx, Hawk, Sea Venom and RAF Tornado are ecxellent. And in the Spit 24 they are the best thing in the box by a looooong way!!

Belgian Air Force 1/32 Mirage 5BA Resin Conversion Set And Decals.
 
French Artisan « Renaissance Â» is working on a complete resin conversion set and decals that
that will permit to convert the 1/32 Italeri Mirage IIIE/O/R to a Belgian Air Force Mirage 5BA.
 
The masters have been created by Belgian Modeler Mr.Patrick Bouclans and recently transfered
to Renaissance for production planning.
 
Wrap around “Vietnam Type†camouflaged Belgian Mirage 5BA/BR/BD are among the most
appealing Mirage of all !

This has probably been seen before by many of us but it's worth a review I think. Lots of everything.
