Gorgeous, gorgeous, GORGEOUS kit. It's truly a "shake the box and out comes a complete model" kit. Minbe is all together (less paint) and I had to use zero filler on it. They seem expensive at first but they are really worth it.

Uh, you sure you've looked it up on Google? Because if you string together "hasegawa draken 1/48" on Google it would pull up a ton of build reviews by people.

Yes, i used google. i entered draken 1/48 & the Hasegawa listing Came up with a review from ARC! i didn't Enter Hasegawa because i wasn't sure who made a Draken in 1/48! that help? Dan

Kinda, but with just "1/48 Draken" you'd still come up with a whole lot of Hasegawa 1/48 Draken reviews.

that was what Prompted me to post the Query. I'm thinking about trying to recreate the Red Arrow from Thunderbirds & Figured that 1/48 would be a Workable Scale to use. what do you think? Dan

A Red Arrow derived from a Draken sounds like a great idea, but what I'm getting at is that you could have gotten a whole lot of research from the initial query enough to know that it's a good kit for the price, and that you wouldn't really have needed to ask again. Most internet communities tolerate a fair degree of question asking but tend not to look kindly at queries that give the impression that one has not done the appropriate amount of research before posting a query.

i read you. but taking Almost 90 minutes to suft through Results from Google is Not my idea of Fun! and a Few of the Reviews Didn't list the Price for the Model. i had to go to sites like Squadron.com to get the Price. Don't mean to sound Touchy about it. Dan
