1/32 Scale Tamiya F-16C Parapack availability

[Mr Matt Foley]

Hey guys,

 

I'm working on getting my pieces together to build a Polish Block 52 Viper. I will be using the Tamiya Block 50 as the base and hope to buy Gary's Block 52 additions and sniper pod. Right now, I am in need of a Parapack. If anyone has any idea of who casts one in resin for sale, I would be eternally grateful.

 

Alternatively, If anyone has any of the isracast products for the Tamiya Block 50 with the parapack, and would sell it, I may be interested as well.

 

Please send me a PM if you would please.

 

Thanks,

 

Eric

KASL hobbies makes an f-16a tail with a parabrake housing if you were inclined to do a little plastic surgery

Here's what you get in the PWMP set:

 

 

 

Compared to the Tamiya tail:

 

 

I found on mine it was a bit thinner than the Tamiya section so I ended up splicing the two together.

 

 

 

Hope that helps

What's the quality like? I have his product list and am thinking about the 1/48 version he makes.

I think it's fine. One of the reasons I did the graft was that I preferred the way the stock tail mounts and this allowed me to keep it that way.

 Thanks. I would do the same thing.

Modified mine from the academy sufa kit to do the greek bloc52 with parapack so should work if you can get your hands on the academy tail sprue! Not much surgery required but some blending in

That is a proper solution. The rest of the resin is not necessary. The KASL is better quality wise I think

Thanks Carl, I may very well do the same thing with mine which arrived today. Very nice item for the Tamiya F-16. Comes with the RWR sensors and more. The parachute is separate from the tail assembly with allowed for better molding and it fits the extended tail like a glove. Fast response for the sale and shipping was fast as well.

 

Sorry I missed all of these posts, for some reason I didn't see any emails on the responses.
