Looking for the right canopy masks
Posted by RoboClerk on Thursday, December 17, 2015 4:51 AM

So I have just bought the

Mitsubishi A6M2b Zero Fighter Type 21 "381ST Flying Group" with Air-To-Air Bombs from Hasegawa in 1:48.

 

That is right canopy mask set to use with this kit?

I had a Eduard mask set for my Zero that was made for the kit canopy, but do to it breaking, I used a vacuformed piece. The masks fit nearly perfect. So, Eduard or Montex masks for your Zero should work just fine.

The masks BK mentions should work find. I one I came across were for 6M3's and 5's, but I guess they would be the same. If possible, always try and find the masks that are at least for that brand of kit. Other will work, might need trimming or filling in.
