First Look
MAW-Decals continues its love affair with the F/A-18C/D Hornet in this latest release. This set updates the Hasegawa kit with the updated centerline pylon. While it is designed as a direct replacement for the Hasegawa part, it can be easily adapted to virtually any other 1/48 Hornet kit.
Molded in white resin, this set consists of the new pylon, which needs to be carefully removed from its molding block as you can see that it has the fuselage pins molded within the block.
What's more, this is a very reasonably-priced update at under $3 USD, so you can bring all of your Hornets up to date.

My sincere thanks to MAW-Decals Decals for this review sample!
