Hi guys, can anyone help me with the following missing parts?;

Canopy for Revell X-32 JSF 1/72

Tailplanes for Airfix 1/72 Mustang

Please help... ;D

Which version of Airfix Mustang? I can think of four at least.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards
Kit

If all else fails, both companies have a part replacement service.

I can certainly help with the tailplanes if it's a -51D.

Vague recollection of the Italeri boxing of the X-32 somewhere in the stash.(think they're the same moulds!)
T'will be the weekend before i can check though.

Thanks guys!  It is a -51D - an old series 2 boxing with a blue nosed aircraft depicted.  I didn't think Revell did a parts service!  Give them a whirl, if no - one has a canopy...

Just a heads ups, the real X-32 was fitted with a Harrier AV-8B canopy, you'll find that the Italeri GR.5 canopy is a close match ( I did a comparison of the two kit canopies)
