New tool 1/48 A-4M From Magic Factory

Post by keavdog »

Pretty excited about the stuff these guys are putting out. Just CAD stuff for now, but looks promising for scooter fans.

Indeed, looks interesting.

Magic Factory is a totally new brand for me

That looks quite nice! I do like all of the options such as flight control surfaces and open access to avionics, not to mention the intake FOD covers.

Of course, I just started the Hasegawa one and then this. :headbang: What they need to do now is make the two-seater with the ability to make the OA-4M. They'd rolling in money then.

I like my planes closed up. The Hasegawa kit is great. Doesn't look like its on an operating table

Interesting addendum - while doing some research on the A-4M, specifically what the avionics hump brought, I found out that the Marines chose the A-4M over the A-7 Corsair. The Marine Corp never flew the SLUF - never knew that.
Thanks,

I'm surprised that Hasegawa never did an OA-4M. Other then reboxing the Monogram kit
