1/72 Hasegawa Su-27

[Rogi]

Hey guys,

good and bad news :S

Recently picked up a Hasegawa kit from my local hobby shop, which I thought was a good deal

It had: Aires: Cockpit and Exhaust sets.

A ladder set from I beleive Dreamtech (too lazy to double check, but its an awesome ladder)

and finally 1, 1/72 Hasegawa kit for a Su-27(B? S? not sure on the designation)

So sounds nice, well it was till this morning when I found out the front nose wheel is missing along with a couple other parts, the main culprit is Sprue F, which isn't in the kit I purchased (maybe someone else used it, misplaced it whatever )


would someone happen to have a spare Su-27 nose wheel (actually spare "Sprue F" since it has both nose and bottom landing gear) or know of a diffrent aircraft that could fit the mold, I might have some spare Russian aircraft around from garage sales that I could burry through to find something similar?

Thanks guys for any comments and help

Anyone, this Su-27 depends on you for this information

I emailed Hasegawa and havn't heard anything from their US parts guys, been close to a week

 

[Wurger]

Igor do you need the nose wheel only?

 

[Rogi]

I need sprue F, its bascily the landing gear in that sprue, and some cockpit parts. But I only need the landing gear.

Its the main nose wheel and the 2 gear legs for the hind landing gear. I'll post a pic once star wars the old republic finishes downloading

 

[Wurger]

I see. Post it then please.

 

[Rogi]

Thats sprue F it has the intakes, landing gear assembly and nose wheel and cockpit parts (I dont need the cockpit parts)

Thanks for any help, all

 

[Wurger]

Well... it appears you don't have these main legs and the nose wheel at all. What about these intakes ? Is the nose wheel the single type or the double one?

 

[Rogi]

I dont have that entire sprue, I don't need the cockpit seat, the main thing is the intakes and the wheels. The intakes I could see about plunder my su-33 for. or scratch build it.
The nose wheel is a single type

 

[Wurger]

OK. I'll ask my mates here.

 

[Rogi]

Thank you Wurger

 

[Rogi]

Just so its clear for which parts, I've circled them : Thank you once again for checking Wurger
There all related ot the landing gear. the non circled stuff I can either scratch build, or have photo etch replacements for the kit is in 1/72 Hasegawa.

 

[Wurger]

OK. If find something I'll let you know. If not, maybe can make them from scratch.

 

[Rogi]

Aye hopefully I'll get a lead on something for the nose wheel

Thanks Wurger
