Here is possibly the greatest model kit ever. The Hasegawa Fokker Dr. 1 in 1/8 scale. A giant kit with 858 parts made out of styrene plastic, resin, plywood, Japanese Cypress, cast metal, sheet aluminum, rubber tires and decals (propeller and instruments). The parts list alone is 11 pages and the instructions have 26 pages. The detail is outstanding and obviously this is a museum quality kit. The negative is that I have already started this kit. I did not finish it because I was activated to Ft Riley, KS in 2003. Since then I have moved to a much smaller house (retired) and have been given orders to down size my huge collection of great kits. As you can see from the pictures I have already done the engine and machine guns. I have started the fuselage, but have only done about 2 of the 5 pages of instructions for the fuselage so there is still a lot to enjoy. All together I have only done about 6 of the 25 total pages. I have had to make one small repair, it is to piece of resin plastic that forms a rod under the cowling on the left side of the plane. Picture #10 shows it. I got close as I could get, but it is difficult to see. PLEASE NOTE: My store is closed until mid-October 2019.
