Customer Review

Although I personally - simply because of the space required - hold 1:72 for something alltagstauglicheren scale, I wanted to "try" especially this P-51D ("Belligerent Bets") times in 1:48 and am quite pleased with the P-51D in this size. The model has worked in the scale clearly "presence" and is very beautiful - absolutely suitable as desk / display model and the price / performance ratio is simply unbeatable even with this "Easy Model"! Pack up and you have a very considerable "Instant" model on the table. While it is running rather easy for the size in parts, but it would be really presumptuous, to complain about the price on such a beautiful model (it lacks a few details such as the Hülsenauswürfe on the wings undersides - if you do not want to do without it, But can this himself "Mark" Or they can just go away -. For a number of flying today "warbird" -Mustangs they are no longer present in any case). Who anyway Just looking back a pretty "Mustang" in the hands and forth and admire the optical classic lines of the P-51D want to build without itself (and paint), which is here well served: The model really comes across very nice ,

Two tips perhaps for the technical / optical purists: As with almost all models of Easy Model one must (if one that is important) the propeller (careful!) Off the axis and grind something so that it rotates freely beautiful. On that occasion I also attached equal a small counter-part to the rear part of the shaft, because the propeller is fitted in this model and would otherwise always fall out. But is quick to accomplish "with available materials".
What has, however, somewhat surprised me in an otherwise almost successful model: fitted around the legs are simply wrong - and at seemingly all models of this series (I have more than one page checked in the network - including the manufacturer pictures - and everywhere the same fault is visible ). The two hydraulic shears the shocks show in this model forward and any comparison with original images or original aircraft shows that they must face to the rear. This also dictates the logic, if one turns around the model: The chassis would just as it is not at all fit in shape in the shaft. But again - anyone who is technically / modellbauerisch halfway shod can fix this. I have the legs carefully removed (be careful that the insertion pin not cancel - the chassis is glued, one can but "work out"), abgeclipst the landing gear doors, the legs turned and positioned on the other side, doors turn again (mirrored now of course so to the other leg - pulling here most original photos for advice if you already make the effort) and the whole reattached (best superglue - then keeps's also). The result looks just the "right" (see my customer adjusted figure), and thus the model is then also "good conscience" beautiful to look at.

So - slightly longer story short: For the money you can not go wrong! You get here a very nice ready-made model, which one (if you want) to improve them even more. Definitely worth buying - I'm a big fan of Easy Model series and have several of their models in my "office displays" at work and at home.
