    LOL!

    Speaking of Japanese and Mobelwagens, I had to buy two of those puppies for the Lunadiver recipe. I love the convergence of donor kits sometimes.

    Cool J, i can see some of the parts you used now, very nice, and it is cool to see the cross over of donors sometimes, like they just new "this kit is the bomb" lol, great minds in those model shops i guess, well way better than my imagination anyhoo

    Bro check my numbers on these, its all kinda from memory, and im still rusty.
    Im sure im wrong on the wheel rim, cant tell without dragging out the kit, but the others i think seem right, if the Vosper IS used thats a bummer as i think they got pretty spendy?
    Big thanks to Flint, for sharing his pics too

    OK, bit of an odd one, cant seem to find a hinge detail as a standalone part, but, the rear fin hinges, look spot on to what are used on the 8rad flaps......is it possible ILM actually went to the trouble of trimming these from the flaps Maybe im not looking hard enough

    Oh and vectral mounts, these are Gepard buddy, same part used on the rear upper hull, so youll need multiples of this kit if your not casting!

    Ya lee I was thinking the same, because the top one is
    longer than the bottom at least it looks that way! Makes sense cut to fit
    right?

    The 3x2 vents/louvres just under the drinking straw match the Airfix Meat Wagon vents Martin Bower cited as used on the 2001 Moonbus!

    They come in single rows of four in the kit.

    I only sussed this out after wasting some on my Snowspeeder. If any one has a set they'd like to part with I'd be willing to buy em a beer or 2/3/4

    Nice find on the gepard parts ! Wooo at least 6 Gepard kits only for that ?

    Yeah I reckon that's odd for the hinges bro, but they still can be cut easily with a thin saw, took 5 secondes per hinges ! I will check my other kits and try to find separate hinges, but the ones on the 232 kit are perfect in size and details, and if you look carefully at them on each hinge, one half of the hinge is roughly shaped, could be the half which is part of the hatch ?

    Any help would be Ace Julien, it cant be bad having all you ID dudes helping out? I noticed there was a distinct lack of symmetry to the hinges.

    Ya but would a drop tank have that extra flash around the outside parameter?
    That part doesn't look like it would have another half to it.
