The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free.  You get all 3 wheels bays plus 3 gear door actuator arms...1 arm for each wheel bay's door.  The fine detail on this set is beyond belief.  Aires continues to step up the detail on their sets and this set is stunning and loaded with detail.  To be honest I can't believe that Aires is able to add this exquisite level of detail to these wheels bays.  Much of the detail is undercut, but somehow Aires was able to cast this complicated detail.

There are 4 pages of instructions with line drawings showing the installation process.  You will be using the Revell kit landing gear doors.

If you're building the big Revell Typhoon, then this wheel bay set is a must have......the detail is fantastic. 

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

I would like to thank Aires for providing me with this review sample.
