I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Navy/Marine F-4 model that had it represented... I missed that one. I'll have to hit the references again and look for it.

Cicciuzzo Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Hi Al, I congratulate you on the excellent work you have done with your F-4; very, very beautiful and well done. I want to ask you for information: where did you get the MER external pylons since they are not present in the Tamiya kit? Thanks for the reply and congratulations on the model again!

Hi, Thank you for the kind words. It was a fun build. The pylons are from Eduard and are very well detailed but they come too short and need to be extended. The set comes with 3 and I sacrificed one to extend the others. There is more information early in the thread on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highlighted it in the photo thanks and congratulations again I had not had my coffee at that point. Yes they are resin but the company is now gone. I have seen various ones on eBay though. There is also a seller who sells kit sprues and he often has the correct sprue from the Tamiya kit that has the pylons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks all the same for your availability. Edited March 25, 2021 by Cicciuzzo Out2gtcha and AlbertD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you change your mind, the outer pylons for ordnance are included in a new small sprue in the Tamiya USMC F-4J boxing. Alternatively, GT Resin has some seperately: https://spruebrothers.com/gtr32065-1-32-gt-resin-us-navy-f-4-phantom-ii-outer-pylons-tam-kit/ Out2gtcha, Cicciuzzo and AlbertD 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
