From what I know, the HGU-48 was then standardised as a HGU-55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreightDog Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Wow they are beautiful. Were you to ever do a pair of RAF Tornado pilots of that quality I'd probably build another two! I'll be ordering this guy anyway for my big Tamiya Viper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmadfire1 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 What would it take to use these F-16 pilot figures to work in an Academy f-18D kit? What modifications would I need to do to them to make an accurate Marine corps F1-8 pilot/ thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael931080 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hi Norbert, is it possible to do a US Air Force Pilot with the JHMCS version other than on the F-16 style body?? Would love one or two for the A-10 and the F-15C's. Thanks Kindly, Michael Waiting to receive my newest order placed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Michael, many thanks for your order ! same gears are used on F-15 and A-10, with the exception of the helmet on A-10, and for the hand on sticks version, the stick is on side on the F-16 and between the legs on the F-15 and A-10. Will probably do some other version without survival vest, as often seen on pictures states side.

Michael931080 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Thanks Norbert, That is exactly what I was hoping for on the changes for the two mentioned aircraft! All the best! Michael norbert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
