                        Speaking of the "Rufe", HELP!
                        Posted by Anonymous on Sunday, June 1, 2003 3:30 PM
                        I plan to build the 1/72 Nakajima A6M2-N Rufe floatplane by Hasegawa as my next project. I know that their 1/48 Rufe includes the beaching gear dolly in the kit, but not in their 1/72 kit. I don't know of any other way to properly display the finished plane other than making a diarama with water.Sad [:(] Not me!Dead [xx(]

                        Does anyone know if there is an aftermarket dolly available or know where I can get plans to scratch build a beaching dolly? Any scale will do. There must be something out there!

                        Thanks,
                        Pete

                        What version of the 72 scale kit do you have ?

                        I've got the Hasegawa version with an aquarama base and it includes the beaching dolly for the Rufe.

                        Guess what ? I'm not going to use the beaching dolly, so if you would like it , send me your address and I'll mail it off to you.

                        Cheers

                        Mitch -
                        I didn't know there were more than one version of the 1/72 Hasegawa Rufe. All I have is the regular floatplane without any extras.

                        That beaching dolly would be a lifesaver! If you are really not going to use it, please let me know your email address and I will give you my mailing address by return email.Wink [;)]

                        I think that the least I could do is pay for the postage.Smile [:)]

                        Thanks a ton,
                        Pete
