What’s in the box? Trumpeter 1/32 Su-27 Flanker

[@IainHamilton]

Just got one and now got to figure out how to get such a monster kit past the boss (aka: the wife) without her realizing (I’m dead ☠️).It’s a beast of a kit.👍

I'm building the kit right now. The box has a 20018 copyright on the box end and you can tell it's getting old, lots of flash and tool marks from the molds they are using. The nose cone and inlets were reworked by Trumpeter after the kit came out because of complaints on the shapes and sizes of both of them, so at least that was fixed by them. If you are thinking about using the Eduards exterior photo etch set #32137, don't waste your money.The set was made when the kit first came out and parts like the huge intake screens DO NOT fit the retooled kit !!! As for the funky metal hinges, just glue the control surfaces in one position and save the headache of parts flapping around ! It might be a huge kit but it's turned into a real pain ! Just my thoughts.

Ok kool…thanks for heads up

Yeah that's a monster heck that even makes the Stuka look small. WoW

[@mrzzgo0ro0na]

By length but not width which is fairly handy…it’ll be smaller than my f-14 because it the f-14 has the wings full open

Well the Carpet Monster can take a vacation during this build lol because you can't miss these parts if they fall on the floor! Jolly good show bro! 🤘🤘🤘

Thanks bro! Glad you liked it!

@@mrzzgo0ro0na now the 1/48rh scale version will be a different story I'm afraid lol I think it will be a fun build though! As always bro I enjoyed the video and I appreciate the time you spent making it.

Hello
This review was just what I was looking for since I have been wandering around the doubt of buying it or not for several days.
By the way the beautiful decals of the Wolfpack of the tomcat where did you find them .. what brand are they?
Greetings from Italy

[@mrzzgo0ro0na]

I’m glad to hear you found it useful! The decals came in the kit…it’s the Trumpeter F-14A in 1/32

[@paolodolimpio1382]

@@mrzzgo0ro0na A real shame because I already have the most accurate tamiya one on the shelf with various aftermarket decals plus Jollyrogers decals in addition to the kit ones.
