Barracuda Studios produces a growing line of resin details under the BarracudaCast brand to compliment their BarracudaCals decal line. In this release, we have a set of early exhaust stacks to replace the kit parts in the Airfix 1/72 Shackleton MR2 kit.

Shackleton MR2 Early Exhaust Set

This set provides a drop-in replacement set of exhaust stacks which have been hollowed out for additional detail. In addition, fastener details have also been cast into these parts which are not depicted on the kit parts. For a look at these parts and other options from Barracuda Studios, stop by their website at barracudacals.com.

My sincere thanks to Barracuda Studios for this review sample!
