| FOV 1:32 line VASTLY improving(Now w/Pics!) I just recieved the new 1:32 P-39 from FOV and its a huuuuuge improvementer the previous releases. first of all, no titanic sized rivets. Second, the cowlings fit perfectly, once theyre installed the join lines are almost indistinguishable from every other panel line on the aircraft. The Spinner is now a fully rotating, unlike previous spinners which had the stationary centre. And maybe most imporant of all, there is no longer a multitude of large, obvious screws on the bottom of the wings. Everything is hidden, with the exception of 2 small holes where the black plastic mounting base for the packaging was screwed on. And not that this was a problem for any of my other FOV aircraft, but the paint was well done, crisp and clean. No smudging or overspray. I really hope FOV can come out with more 1:32 releases of this quality. | |||||||||||||
