1:50 Mitsubishi F1M2 Pete

Post by Cherrylock »

Tamiya has kits , nice details, good fit, easy to build----and all of this chanced to a today high level, but what was this in the earlier years?

this Pete is von Tamiya, box is dated to 1967!!!

fit good
dolly include!!
pilot figures (simple, nut used on the dolly )
easy to build

and raised panels
poor cockpit
simple engine

it is not like a model of today but a model simiar to this is the Monogram Kingfisher and the Pete is better (and I builded 3 Kingfishers :blush: )

Great work on an old kit! Looks really good.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

That does look good though - really beaten up.
