First Look
If you've been keeping up with recent events, you've seen the nice array of AMS Resin detailed resin cockpits for the Revell/Monogram, Kinetic, and FM/Heller F-84F kits as well as for the FM/Heller RF-84F kits. Well AMS Resin didn't stop there. They've been working on a variety of new subjects, and this set takes care of another pet peeve out there in the modeling world.
The Trumpeter 1/32 scale F-100 Super Sabre kits are currently the best Huns in any scale for overall quality and detail. But as detailed as the kit may be, it isn't feasible for it to have every external store ever carried during its operational life. One such example is the 200 gallon external tanks that supplemented the larger tanks carried on the mid-wing stations.
AMS Resin has created crisply detailed resin tanks in two parts, and look at the detail there. Nice work! The set is complimented with a set of corrected pylons to suspend these tanks under your wings. These intakes are good for both of the Trumpeter F-100s.
Recommended for experienced modelers!
My sincere thanks to AMS Resin for this review sample!
