1/48 Hasegawa F-4G Wild Weasel

A blast from the past! This Weasel was built straight out of the box after 20+ years in storage. Building it still provided as much fun & enjoyment as the first Hasegawa Phantom I built in the late 1980s. I have forgotten how great these kits were!

I also used the original kit decals. Even though they have slightly "yellowed" with time they still applied just fine. It actually helped add to the model's weathered look. I used an extra AGM-78 from Hasegawa's weapon set as part of the Weasel's loadout.

Hope this inspired some of you to start building some of those kits you are collecting in your storage shelves. "Just do it!"
