Kit was old Heller could just make out from a sprue actually built up well, the decals looked rubbish, but had no intention of using. These re box kits for the money can be quite good .

@@ewmhop Cobras also flew high cover for the LOACH (Little Birds in today's jargon) as they trolled above the tree line hoping to draw enemy fire. (Known as a Hunter-Killer team when paired up like this). When fired upon, the door gunner on the LOACH would toss out a (usually red) smoke grenade, the pilot would exit the area with the tail pointing towards the smoke (indicating where the fire had come from) while calling the Cobras to roll in-- as soon as the LOACH cleared! After a few runs, the LOACH would go back in and check things out; repeat as necessary. After a while, the VC/NVA didn't fire on the low flying LOACHES because it inevitably meant that Cobras were going to ruin your day. In the early 70s, the Marines sent their twin engined Sea Cobras over to Vietnam for trials, where they performed well.

@Adam_Boots Жыл бұрын

It's definitely not the original tooling. The original Matchbox kit had much better panel lines and sharpness. What I believe is they copied the tooling but ended up losing some of the details. They then had someone try and recreate the details by hand which is why the details are sloppy. The detail on the rotor blades doesn't even match up with each other and is very soft. If you look at the matchbox version they match perfectly and are sharp. Details don't change that much when using the same tooling. Only a different tooling could be that different.

@@MOS6510Models It would be an interesting comparison though, comparing a clone to the original. We see tools being re-released over and over again by different manufactuers. A clone though is very different. Would the parts even fit with the originals or would the tollerances between them be off.

It's a shit kit as it's not what I expected the kit to be as they should have better quality control and not let mistakes happen like the overlap of them panel lines. Peace and happy modeling!
