Re: I'd kill for some good Marushin pics.


I don't see why you can't. These are assembled with screws, unless you've glued them on permanently.

Well, not so fast... Typically, yes, the fuselage and wing are held together by screws, but the rest (tailplanes, landing gear, tail wheel, antenas, guns, external tanks) have to be glued in place, at least in my experience. The engine/cowl/propeller might stay in place without glue on some models, but I'm not sure that's a good idea.

So you can take them apart, but only up to a point.

I should've latched onto to that orange Willow floatplane when I had the chance.

Its still available.. Just look for the seller HobbyJapan on Ebay w/ BIN for $86.00, that is an almost unbeatable price..

I really like the Marushin models with one exception, they sure are heavy.

Re: I'd kill for some good Marushin pics.

Just built a George, Tony, Frank, and Zeke -- I actually quite enjoy assembling these models, for the most part they are machined very well and everything fits without much effort (though a little glue usually helps..)

Here's a couple pics of the first to come off the assembly line:

Great pics Pappy!! I have the same Zero on the way and it looks like I might be competing with Bill (wmosner) for that silver Frank..

Thanks for posting..

Re: I'd kill for some good Marushin pics.

NP Harry -- and that Zero was a dream to build, btw, by far the easiest so far... took like 5 minutes. (Could use some glue or tack to keep the canopy fit tight.. but that's about it.)

Here's some of the George and Tony -- I'll post reviews with more pics on the site when I can get to 'em.
