Custom Aeronautical Miniatures 1/32
F-86F Sabre Cockpit Set

Editor's Note: When this review was first written, the Kfir conversion was producted by TAC Scale Dynamics, but they have since closed their doors and sold the molds to Custom Aeronautical Miniatures (CAM). CAM, in turn, was sold to another company and while they still produce decals, the resin molds were sold to John's Models. You can now obtain this set by visiting their website at www.johnsmodels.com.

The folks at TAC Scale Dynamics have another winner here. Targeted for the Hasegawa 1/32 F-86F Sabre, this set provides a completely new cockpit. Take a look!

The set provides a new cockpit tub with detailed side consoles, nicely detailed ejection seat, instrument panel, control stick, sidewalls and rear deck. What really caught my eye was the beautifully molded canopy frame replacement parts. This detail set, together with the two recently-released Eduard photo-etched detail sets (not included), will yield a breath-taking 1/32 F-86F! With a little work on the wings and miscellaneous details, you could even backdate the kit to an F-86A or F-86E and maintain air superiority when TAC Scale Dynamics releases their 1/32 MiG-15. I am definitely looking forward to this project and recommend it to any Sabre-lover!
