1/48 Hasegawa F-15E

The newer F-15E by Revell-Monogram is well done but the Hasegawa bird is the one that I would choose.
At the moment I'm finally painting my 262 so I'm only taking 5..!! So my above answer is short and sweet
Either way its your choice my friend(or it could may be dollar wise). To me they both make me happy since I have them both(one was a trade and the other was 1/2 price. Now thats what I'm talking about..). Depending on where you purchase your Hase or Rev 15E, the Hase could run anywhere from $30-40 and the Rev $20-30 giv or take.

My choice would be the Revellogram kit, though I'd try to find a ProModeler boxing, it includes ordnance. The "regular " Revellogram boxing has none.

Butz, have you been sneaking down here to grab more of that Stewart's Key Lime?


Fade to Black...

The Hasegawa one is not a E version model; instead it comes out with some sprues for the ordnance, CFT's and the cockpit to convert it to an E but the rest of the model is actually a D version. You can make a good D version out of it.
The Revelogram one is the only E model of the Eagle among the models that have been produced until now.

The R-M F-15E Strike Eagle is an excellent and accurate kit.
The fit also rivals if not better than the Hase kit. This case price is not an issue for the R-M kit can be had for $15-20 USD. The Hase kit build nice as Hase normally does, but it is just an F-15B with CFT's.
The cockpit is wrong, the mains are incorrect. The pylons for the ordnance are incorrect as well. And what is really nice is the
R-M kit is very detailed. Pro-Modeler version has the ordnance included. But you cannot go wrong with either version from R-M. You don't really need any aftermarket resin for this accept for maybe decals if you do not like whats provided.

Blackwolf,
Na it was one of those days that I really want to forget about..
I knew about the "D" variant(thanx Brian) but I thought that later on Hasegawa made the "E" as well.

hmm.. sounds really good indeed. i would just opt for the obviously more cost-effective R-M kit. Thank you guys!

I just picked up the Academy F15E.
It comes with CFT's and a bunker buster as well as a full weapons set.
Very nice

I would go for the Revell/Monogram Strike Eagle. It's less expensive than the Hasegawa kit and most of the issues of it include weapons, whereas the Hasegawa doesn't.
