It does have slats, I think the instructions are wrong. If you look on Scalemates, the Beaver Corporation JASDF release has the correct instructions. Grunticus 1
CRAZY IVAN5 Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Can you still get this kit,cuz I've been looking for awhile now?

I'm thinking that this kit is based on the old Hasegawa -86F. No. It is fully different. No Hasegawa Sabre release had recessed panel lines and there are noticeable shape differences between the Kinetic and Hasegawa kits. CRAZY IVAN5 and Grunticus 1 1

Well, that figures as I have the older Hasegawa kit and it does indeed have raised panel lines which I can deal with. The shape issues I'm ignorant of as I'm not a whizz bang on -86s, I like 'em but don't know all the ins and outs. Hopefully it isn't too far out kilter.
CRAZY IVAN5 Posted March 23 Posted March 23 I reckon we needs a new state o' the art big scale -86. If it's good it should sell I'd think, lots of marking options to be had. But what do I know. John1, Grunticus, thierry laurent and 1 other 4
