Sounds like a good lead, Kaiburr. Update?
****
In case any of this warrants discussion, (and to help anyone trying to determine what has been added/changed) here is what has been changed in the list since I first posted it weeks ago. Many clarifications were added by myself based on my own observations, and, of course, many were contributed by you good folks!
The complete list itself will from now on be maintained on a web page. It won't be up till after the holidays, though.
##
Airfix 1/144 Apollo Saturn V Rocket
I only just added the most obvious detail of all: stage 1 halves for the engines. Not that anyone didn’t already know! Also added the fact that the newer kit has minor differences from ‘70s Airfix version.
Airfix 1/600 German Battleship Scharnhorst
I was told after posting the first list that this belongs here, but thatÂ’s all I know. Perhaps it only counts because of the bogus R2 strip slapped on as a repair to that one Y.
Airfix 1/24 AV-8A Hawker Harrier
retail Price is $85. The engine parts on the wings are #s 12 & 13. 17 & 18 also somewhere.
Airfix 1/24 Hawker Hurricane Mk II
(Mk1 is currently more plentiful and also works)
engine block halves are parts 6 & 7; the "Rolls Royce" engine valve cover parts are #s 39 & 40; the oil pan is part # 8;
Bandai 1/24 Messerschmitt Bf 109 E4
the landing gear of THIS KIT, may it finally be posted, is the source of the “dome struts”. My thanks to the contributor.
ESCI/ERTL (DML?) 1/8(?) German KettenKrad
this entry was erroneously labeled “Tamiya” in the first listing.
Italeri 1/35 155mm Gun M1-A2 Howitzer
The 105mm Howitzer, and probably other variations, has mostly the same parts, including this one; the same kits have been released under the Testors brand
Tamiya 1/25 British Centurion tank
$66 at Hobby Link Japan
Tamiya 1/35 JagdTiger
I recently picked up a Nichimo version that would work just find in its place. (For all I know itÂ’s the same kit)
the 1/76 JagdTiger entry was changed to reflect an unknown manufacturer. Tamiya didnÂ’t make one. In fact, the entire entry has yet to be substantiated.
Tamiya 1/35 Panzerkampfwagen III Ausf M/N
This is definitely the box at the end of the dome struts. either of two identical parts, Part #A4 (“gun turret base”) or part # C8 (“N Type Barrel Base");
Kit is also the source of the rectangular strip w/ 3 rectangular cutouts seen in several places, both on engines and hull: part #A33 (“Armour Plate C”): undoubtedly long known by the gurus in our midst but the ID has to my knowledge never been posted here. Found that one alllll by myself, aren’t you proud?
Tamiya 1/20 sf3d (ma.k zbv 3000) JERRY heavy armored fighting suit
this entry was added thanks to a contributor.
