Hasegawa Bearcat is the same mould as the Monogram/Revell according to Scalemates.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Why does everything in French sound like some kind of sauce? :unsure:

"Gabonaise"! :rolleyes: :angel:

Nice build & backstory, though, Dizzy! ;) :thumbsup:

Because the sauces are named after places. Sauce Bearnaise => sauce from Bearn. Etc.

But you knew that..  ;)

Hobby Boss recently added an F8F in 1:72 to their range, too - but it is a rather simplistic model.

I just remembered that my mum brought me a large pile of 72nd model planes for xmas when i was a little dude and in it was a Monogram Bearcat..thanks Thomas mate..i wouldnt have remembered that other wise.  ;D
Im not going to build another one ..ive got a heap of planes now..well nothing compared to you blokes but alot for me since before Guy sent me one i had no unbuilt ones at all and now..lots  :lol:
And more when the 3 i ordered turn up at some point.

Oh!  and here I thought the name meant it was made from bear's noses ...  :P
