G'day, today i was looking at the models in a local toyshop, and i saw a 1:72 FA-18 hornet "raaf" now this is great coz this is just what ive been looking for, but im not sure about the brand, i think it was FUJAMI or something simliar, now has anyone ever built this kit before or heard of this company? are they good quality, and does the kit come with a pilot. Also, does anyone know of any kits or packs of just 1:72 modern us pilots that you could put in a kit if it didnt come with a pilot? cheers

Hi ,

I think it could be FUJIMI - I have a F-18 from Fujimi it is very good model - nice engraved panel lines , also details and weapons but without pilot figure .
About pilots I only knew a Hasegawa set there are some nice pilot figures but with mechanics and airfield stuff .


Cheers
