Grand models

A Greek firm producing Resin conversions and models.

First up, their TF-102 conversion:









They also do a T-6 Texan II

That's a nice addition. Not that I actually wanted a TF-102, but I wondered why noone ever made a kit of this version?
That complete nose certainly offers even more whiffing potential.

There has been at least two conversion sets in 1/72 Dizzyfugu. I have the XTRA PARTS XP03 conversion and I hm sure that someone like RVHP also did a conversion set that replaced the whole fuselage.

Airmodel did a TF-102 conversion fuselage as well, but you wouldn't introduce your daughter to it.................

I've got one too, which I think is an Airwaves injection conversion.  I'll dig it out and check ---

That's nice, would be good for a strike conversion

I wondered why noone ever made a kit of this version?

It might be a good subject for someone like Sword, but I think the two seater Dagger gets quite a lot of negative aesthetic  reaction.  I was at a model show recently and someone had done a nice TF-102 conversion among some F-102's and F-106's.  The TF-102 seemed to draw a lot of comments, basically, "that's ugly, couldn't bring myself to model it".  I felt a bit sorry for the modeler who'd done a good job!

The quality of those parts does make the idea of cutting up one of Meng's F-102's a more appealing idea as all the previous conversions that I know of are rather basic.

The guys who did Modeldecal did a TF-102 conversion too, I've got one in The Loft somewhere.

I had one before but I made a right hash of the Hasegawa base kit and had to bin the project.
