Brass rod and tubing…

Or parts from the other Matchbox kit, or the two Grand Phoenix puppies. Still no good FJ-4.

Mighty nice rebuild, Stik!

I am starting conversations with around 2 and Revell about getting significant chunks of parts to re-do a couple of doomed kits.

Didn’t Hobbyboss or Kitty Hawk do some FJs, including the -4?

Right, Carlos. I plead mind fade. Anyone want a couple Grand Phoenix FJ-4's?

Here's my Matchbox FJ-4 before the great collapse.

I have that kit in my stash John. It looks like a Fury to me the way that you built it up

I picked one up a couple years ago

Tiny pilot

Like the Academy Hawker Hunter. Undersized cockpit…

I've built that Hobby Boss Fury kit. It's a great kit too!

NICE!!!! Happy to hear its a good kit
