Being recently back to Aircraft builds, I found some F-18's from Hasegawa at a good price(almost 30% discount) I was wondering about the quality of these kits ? fitting ? detailing?

Thanks for the help !

Well John,I built an older C model,and the more recent F model and they both went together like butter with no fit or assembly issues.As far as accuracy and the need to add AM,well I can't say.I built them OOB and thought they came out good.I'm sure that advanced builders would want to add stuff to them.

Anthony & Jose , thanks for your help !!!

I might get one then, some brands / kits are a nightmare I guess Hasegawa isn't one of them.
Thanks again guys !
