Selling for a friend. 1/32nd scale cockpit detail set number BLC 32032 for a Trumpeter A-7E. A company called Avionix from Squadron Shop. I'll double check to make sure it's complete. I'm thinking $20.00 or best offer.

x2 for the Clear Prop. I've got one with some of the extra detail bits (clever business model). Quality looks good in the box.

Isn't the FROG mould meant to be wildly inaccurate? Not that it matters if it's going to be Whiffed of course.
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! :)

I got this Frog repop version...

...mainly because I thought the packaging was so cool.  But also because it was cheap.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.  Revelling in numptytism.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed, badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry.

I've gone and got the Clear Prop kit as recommended. It was reasonably priced (and I'm a tight arse).

How is the kit inaccurate? It might work in my favour  ;D

*I bought the Frog reboxing, not the Clear Prop, my mistake 😅

No the Clear Prop is supposed to be bang on, iirc the Frog is closer to 1/63, but with 1/72 wings. But I may be thinking of another kit. If you go on BM and search for Navy Bird's build he explains the issue and resolvers it nicely.

Oh yeah, that's how I remember the FROG kit's problem.

Just as an aside, my late father-in-law was working at Cranwell the day that it first flew, and he thought its prop had fallen off.  ;D

You've probably heard me say this before, but my late father had a very close encounter with it while doing some solo training in a Tiger Moth. He reported it when he landed, and was told, in no uncertain terms, that not only had he seen nothing, but he was not to tell anyone about the nothing.  ;D
