tamiya harrier 1/48 £12.99

Post by m0rce »

Hi
Misslabeled as 1/72 this is selling for 12.99 at hobbycraft.

Thought was cheap for a 48th scale tamiya so got one.

Regards
S

That happened to me when I got a Tamiya 1/48 spitfire, priced as a 1/72 kit! Unfortunately, that Harrier is a pig, good luck with the build :thumb2:

Good luck with the build S...it's a cheap kit, but like I said on YouTube, it needs some work to get it looking okay. But, you'll still have fun building it, so don't be too disheartened. Oh, I did forget to mention on YouTube that the cockpit is very basic as well.

Cheers :cheers2:

Doh!
Just seen Lee's review of the bird....
its not a bargain at this price either... i thought it was good for a 1/48.... (if your looking into this kit, unlike me, do some reseach to see if you really fancy it. Its not your usuall tamiya kit)
But i can work with raised panel lines. Practiced on the airfix lancaster (old mould) and vulcan so should be ok.
And ordered some eduard pe for office :)
Ill try to post prog...
