First Look

ResKit from Ukraine produces a nice array of resin detail sets for a variety of popular subjects and scales. Here is their first entry into the 1/32 aircraft market with this set of wheels for the A-10 Thunderbolt II. Molded in gray resin, this set provides the main tires with separate wheel hub and brake hub inserts, as well as the nosewheel also with separate hubs. You'll need to open up the center hole of each wheel hub to fit your kit's landing gear strut axles.

A-10 Thunderbolt II Wheels Set

The casting of these wheels is very sharp and provide nice details in the hubs and treads. This set will enhance your model at a reasonable price and these look great on either of the Trumpeter 1/32 A-10 kits.

You can order this set with free shipping on HobbyZone USA's eBay store.

My sincere thanks to HobbyZone USA for this review sample!
