Revell 1:48 P38J Lightning
 |
As with most Revell kits, the price is lower because of the large volume of the model produced. Do not let this fool you. This is a great kit. You can build a P-38J/L, P-38M or a P-38J Drop Snoot (not the pathfinder version). The kit comes with two "tree" rocket launchers, 2x drop tanks, 2x 500-pound bombs along with all the parts for all 3 versions. Only 2 minor problems with this kit:
It is the best late P-38 kit on the market, don't let the minor problems stop you. The weight is easy to fix, and there are aftermarket props. The kit still looks good with the included props. |

Glacier Girl Model
|
Academy 1/48 P38F Glacier Girl The Academy P-38 Lightning is one of the nicer renditions of the fork-tailed devil produced in 1/48 scale. It wasn't surprising that they'd reissue their kit with the appropriate parts to render the P-38F and in impressive decal sheet to meticulously replicate this beautifully restored aircraft. Bear in mind that there never was a P-38 named 'Glacier Girl' in World War II as this was the nickname given the aircraft after is was found under the ice 60 years later. The decal sheet has THE most extensive set of maintenance stencils I've ever seen on a P-38 and should keep you busy for quite some time. The Glacier Girl also wears her FAA registration number NX17630 as a legal airworthy warbird and these are provided on the decal sheet as well. The Academy P-38s are definitely nice kits that build up into beautiful models with a little care and skill. This decal set alone is worth having for any P-38 project as you won't find many model companies printing multicolored decals without multiple layers like this much any more. |
