HobbyBoss have sent us photos of their latest 1:48 kit - the McDonnell F3H Demon.
This will be the first time the Demon has been available as a mainstream kit in this scale. Note: the images are of a final test-shot - hence the cloudy canopy parts.

More details of decals options, price and availability will hopefully follow soon.

Please remember, when contacting retailers or manufacturers, to mention that you saw their products highlighted here - on AEROSCALE.

Hi Rowan, Many thanks for the info. I recently completed the AZ Model version and this looks like it just might go together a tad easier (or one can hope). Cheers!

Wonder if there will be a folded wing option?

I can certainly see more then just as few 1st generation jets in my future with the up coming releases of a F2H and a F3H both in 1/48 scale. Joel
