Wanted: 1/48 Hasegawa AV-8B Canopy

silverwindblade · July 18, 2018, 04:58:07 AM

Hello one and all. I managed to, somehow, crack the main canopy for my Harrier II in half when I was masking it. Everything else about the kit is fine, and I'm not really up for buying another one just to replace that.
If anyone has a spare Harrier II canopy in 1/48 scale, would they be willing to part with it, and what would like in return?

Thanks

I've got a Monogram one, I'm converting one of the two AV-8B's I have into a T-10. Where are you located though, might be prohibitive cost wise for mailing.

I'm in the UK, so it might end up being expensive for postage D:

Yeah! I'm in Alberta. If you can't find one though ----

Well, no other leads so far.

If you're still willing to part with the canopt, Kit, I'll gladly take it - haven't had any luck finding another one yet.

That'll be Robert, not me..............

I'll get the kit out on the weekend ---

Thanks very much, greatly appreciated

Sorry about the delay, I've just found it. I was looking for my Monogram kits and couldn't find it, but then discovered it's actually a Revell kit.

PM me a snail mail addy so I can get a postage amount for you. You can have the canopy though, sometime ago I had been looking for some wheels and u/c gear for a 1/48 GR.5/7/AV-8B and someone helped me out (for my STOVL Canberra project). A friend said he had the parts but when I got the package from him, I found he gave me the whole kit

(thanks Barry)

Cheers
Robert

Thanks very much, it's greatly appreciated. I've PM'ed you as requested.
I'm sure the canopy will fit well enough, despite the kit being Hase and the canopy being from a Revell one; they're the same shape and should be the same size - or, at least enough. And I can bodge it to fit, one way or another.

As long as its not the Snap Tite kit, the Revell kit is a reboxing of the Hasegawa offering.

kitnut617 · August 05, 2018, 04:38:58 AM

It's not a Snap-Tite kit.

Can you check who you PM'd to, I've not received anything as of yet.

silverwindblade · August 06, 2018, 02:40:14 AM

Not sure what happened, so I've re-sent it to you.
