Tony T Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I want to do a camouflaged Connecticut ANG F-100F from Bradley Field/Windsor Locks. Tony Royboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchThud Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I'm very happy with the F-100F. I thought it would never come. We sure could use some nice 1:32 F-100F decals now. Royboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're simply rehashes of their hash job 1/48 kits of the same subject, with all the warts those contain, you'll need more resin than I could possibly afford to fix them. Their F-100C is a joke. Well, I would not hold my breath considering the number of problems of the 1/32 F-100D... But wait and see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seiran01 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I know the intake shape is a little off and the kits had insignia blue MUCH too dark on the decal sheet... but what other problems are there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Trying to correct the 1/32 D put me off of F-100s for years. I'm still concerned the landing gear on mine might collapse under the weight of all of the resin I threw at it. Their 1/48 and 1/72 Cs were much worse. I'll stick with the 1/48 Monogram kit or the 1/72 ESCI & Italeri kits until somebody not Trumpeter releases a new Hun. I'm sure Harold will make a killing if he sells a correct 1/32 F-100C cockpit, tail, wheels, intake, etc. Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadBaron Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 From the above linked review: "Even though the length of this list below would make it appear otherwise, the general shapes are good enough and most of the details are accurate enough that a good-looking facsimile of an F-100D can be built straight from the box." The intake is off, and the leading edge of the vertical stabiliser needs sanding back to reduce chord. Other wise its panel line and specific airframe detail issues. Am I missing the major gripe that makes it an unbuildable? Andrea Ferrari, PhilB and Dandiego 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quang Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Don’t like? Don’t buy. Easy but don’t judge something you haven’t seen but a fuzzy box-art picture taken in a toy fair. Dandiego 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royboy Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Great to see that at least THEY ARE catching up on those models promised so long ago and some! The Douglas Devastator is still on the list so maybe that might not be that far way now? Regarding the accuracy issues, IMHO....they will sell regardless! We sometimes forget that these things aren't so important to the majority of kit builders out there worldwide. If it is important to you then of course you won't buy it. Trumpeter have invested time and money on the kits because the F-100D must have sold well enough to warrant their production? I don't think they're finished yet either, between Hobby Boss and themselves they are delivering some interesting subjects. I hope it continues well into the future. Let's stay positive for the hobby, and let's have some more upbeat remarks for a change please! PhilB, Tony T, David G and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
