Wolfpack Designs have released these rather fine pieces of metal casting for the undercarriage of the Academy 1/32 F-16. This is the first of Wolfpack''s venture into creating update sets in metal.

Looks like WP is going to give SAC a run for the money by copying their forte; kit copied landing gear in metal form. Too bad that same approach does not address some fundamental errors, like the overly thick main shock and tension struts, as well as the torque links that are so ridiculously small, that they can pass for 48th scale.
The 32nd F-16 landing gear sets G-Factor will be producing next year will be more than just metal cast kit gear. They will be properly dimensioned for the Tamiya kits and corrected for the Academy kit.
