Trumpeter 1/32 A-7E
Posted by kg4kpg on Thursday, January 18, 2018 7:59 AM

Just picked one of these up unboxed for a sweet $40 bucks. Man this thing is huge! I normally build 1/144 and 1/72 now but I love the A-7 and couldn't pass it up. The seller also gave me a nice set of markings from a Desert Storm aircraft but I think I'm going to see if I can find a set of the VA-72 camoflauge markings, then hopefully the weather will improve soon so I can get out into the garage/work bench and get started.

For only $40, I don’t blame you.  I hope you post some progress pics soon as I really think this particular aircraft is one good looking bird.

Trumpeter makes really good 1/32 kits.  I’ve built several over the years and my favorite‘s were jets.  And I normally build propeller aircraft.  The jets were a Me 262 and a Night Attack Harrier.  They went together almost like a Tamiya, almost.  

I hope you do a WIP on your A-7.  Congratulations on obtaining this kit at such a price point and good luck in your build.
