If you have the new Dragon
1/350 USS Independence, you were probably blown away by the aircraft
included. You are probably one of those who have been pleading for these
aircraft to be made available separately. Well your wish has been granted.
Cyber-Hobby now has these aircraft sets ready to populate your carriers. |

|
TBF Avenger x6 |
|
TBF Avengers are molded with fixed and folded wing options. These too
feature nice panel lines and separate cowling. Open and closed canopy options
and as an added bonus a torpedo bay with open and closed door options.
And if that is not enough, how about a scale torpedo to mount in the bay!
A nice touch. |

DECALS |
|
A variety of aircraft roundels are provided covering several periods. |

INSTRUCTIONS |
|
A simple sheet is included showing the assembly of each
aircraft type and the options for them. Decal placement and painting info
are also included. The back of the packaging shows the various aircraft
sets and what's included in each.

CONCLUSIONS |
|
I consulted on the design and development of this set, so I may be
a bit biased. But in my opinion, these aircraft are best plastic 1/350
aircraft available now. I like the fact that you can buy them as a set
or by each aircraft type. Those of you that want a full airwing on deck
can now have it for a fair price. I am sure that many modeler may want
to replace the aircraft in some of the other kits already on the market
too. |
