First Look

Barracuda Studios produces a growing line of details under the BarracudaCast brand to compliment their BarracudaCals decal line. This release provides a replacement set of landing gear struts and retraction arms cast in brass. This set also includes a resin tailwheel, though the main wheels are sold separately because there are two styles to choose from.

Hawker Sea Fury Brass Landing Gear

This set provides beautifully cast main gear struts and arms, which are drop-in replacements for the new Airfix kit, though you can adapt them to fit the Falcon, Hobbycraft, AMG, and Trumpeter kits.

For a look at this set and other options from Barracuda Studios, stop by their website at barracudacals.com.

My sincere thanks to Barracuda Studios for this review sample!
