hi all
I posted this one some months ago...
now another and better (I hope!) pictures...
the reason is following...
I will abandon making aircraft projects after 1953 (end of the korean war) and this one is such one...
its for trade or sell .all hasegawas F-104 parts are stil included .
the triangle and undercarriage are removable for easier painting!
I was notz able to post the pictures in "swap shop" so I post it here...
if anyone is interested so let me know via pm or email me directly at nepio@XXXgmx.de (remove the trippleX ).
Im looking for a kit which is in the price of the hase starfighter...
nice would be the Tam Skyrider (USAF) or 1/48 Wyvern...
my work is quasi for "free"....
thanks in advance for any interest!

Hi Peter,

I bought this conversion a while ago too.  I haven't built it yet, I'd be interested in what you thought of it and how the conversion went.

Very nice built! :wub:
but I don't think I would be able to finish it properly, sorry... :(

Weird, I have a triangular-shaped highlighter pen with three pointed caps that twist exactly this same way...

Very nice indeed; a beautiful model of an interesting proposal.  Mind you, compared to some of the other vstol Starfighter proposals it's kinda tame (tail-sitter anyone?), but it's definitely an interesting proposal.

The history notes that came with the 1/72 Unicraft conversion I have, says it was an actual proposal from the test pilot who did all the Ryan Vertijet flying.  There's a photo of a guy holding a large model of this aircraft included, but whether it is the test pilot I don't know.

the kit is finished to glue small parts like wheel flaps and the cockpit and paint it...
