Does anyone know if the Blackbox 1/48 F-4J cockpit for the Hasegawa kit will fit in the 1/48 Monogram kit? I was thinking about buying the Legend cockpit, but I don't know if I want to go to the trouble of destroying the fuselage -:p - since I have never done anything like that before. I have the Blackbox kit, and I was going to save it for the Hasegawa kit -- but if it will work for the Monogram kit, it seems like that would be easier -- and more cost efficient :-) . Any help would be much appreciated.

Compare the two original cockpit tubs side by side. If you have them, use a set of artist's calipers to check dimensions, then dry fit the am tubs to check the fit before breaking out the glue.

Well, after the comparison, I have decided that it will be better just to buy the Hasegawa kit.
With what the new cockpit would cost, a few extra bucks will buy the kit.

Not really going to answer your question but wanted to say hey from another Doug Smith here on Armorama.

Why hello, and nice to meet you I live in Rochester, MN. Where about in Nebraska do you live?

No friend sorry, I have the same cockpit's kit of Black Box and only you can work for the Hasegawa Kit...Don't try with the Monogram kit.
