MSRP: $ 24.95 each plus $ 4.50 shipping/handling. If you're contemplating the build of a quarter scale F84F or RF84F, by any manufacturer, in almost any configuration, then Harold at AMS has got you covered ! I first ran across these products during the build of the Trumpeter F-100D, and found them to be of excellent quality, as is the case with the Thunderstreak offerings. Flawlessly cast in grey resin, these will round out your build whether it's the new Kinetic kit, the aging Revell/Monogram or even the Heller kits that now have a long grey beard! Included in the set I plan to use when completing the Kinetic F-84 are the following: · Cast splitter plate and nose wheel bay (no impossible seam to fill). · Corrected tail pipe assembly. · Cockpit tub. · Instrument panel with beautifully cast dials. · Instrument coaming. · Forward bulkhead with rudder pedals. · Control stick. · Ejection seat with molded in belts and O2 hoses. · Gun sight. · Rear tank housing. In short, a lot of resin at a reasonable price. When ordering, there are some subtle differences in the makeup of these sets, so be sure to specify which it you need the set for.
