AMS Resin 1/32 F-80C Cockpit Set

By Frank Anselmo

AMS Resin produces some of the finest aftermarket detail sets on the market today, and one of the newest sets is for the Czech Model/Squadron 1/32 scale F-80C kit. The cockpit in the kit is rather bland, but this set will allow you to replicate the cockpit of your kit to much higher level.

The center piece of this set is the new cockpit tub. It has to be seen to be believed. It includes all of the missing detail of the kit cockpit, as well as correcting some of the kit errors, one of which is the control stick.

The instrument panel in this set has been left blank intentionally as Harold decided that the etched metal set in the kit produced by Eduard could not be improved upon. However, he did improve the gunsight above the panel.

A new seat is also included, and is another masterpiece. It is of the same quality as the seat that AMS produced for the 1/32 F-86F kit by Kinetic. The details of this seat are superb.

This set can be ordered directly from AMS resin at http://mysite.verizon.net/resqt29j/.

This set is very highly recommended.

My thanks to Harold at AMS Resin for this review sample.
