Opinions on two 1/32 trumpeter kits
Posted by goldhammer on Monday, February 1, 2016 9:14 AM

Looking at a 1/32 Trumpeter F6F-5 and F8F-1 for future builds. Just wondering if anyone has built either of these and what you think of them.

To goldhammer,

As of yet, I have not had the opportunity to build these kits mentioned above.  I can say, in my humble opinion in that I think that Trumpeter's offering of their 1:32 kits are just stellar.  

I don't think that Trumpeter's 1:32 kits can compete with Tamiy's 1:32 fabulous four kits.  Mustang, Corsair, Spitfire, and Zero.  I'm not sure as of yet if the 1:32 Mossie fits into this category.  It's possible it will in the very near future.

Going back to Trumpeter's 1:32 Models, I can highly recommend the purchase of Trumpeter's 1:32 kits although for some modelers the cost issue can be a challenge.  Other than that I can say I've built the Avenger, Dauntless, BF 109, and my current build the Stuka, all just amazingly highly detailed model aircrafts.  I'm sure that Trumpeter will not let you down as far as their 1:32 scale models are concerned.  Good luck in your venture!
