This latest release from SBS Model features a complete resin cockpit for the F-4E/F Phantom from Revell.  

This detail set includes;

  • Resin cockpit tub and 2 ejection seats with molded resin seatbelts

  • 2 Instrument panels in resin

  • 4 Resin sidewalls

  • Acetate panels for the instrument panels

  • Photo Etch panels for the instrument panels

  • Photo etch detail parts including canopy mirrors, Canopy frames and much more

The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free. I'm was particularly impressed with the raise details on the side panels in the cockpit as well as the resin seats.  The level of Photo Etch details parts will be a vast improvement over the kit cockpit.

There are 2 pages of instructions and they are well laid out and easy to follow.

If you're building the 1/72 F-4E/F Phantom from Revell then you definitely want to consider using this cockpit set and taking your 1/72 Phantom to a whole new level.

You can purchase these and other fine resin detail items directly from SBS Model or from the many retailers that carry their products.
