These new resin set from Teknics includes F9F-2/3 Corrected Nose for the Trumpeter/HobbyCraft. This is a F9F-2/3 Corrected Fighter Nose for the Trumpeter/HobbyCraft. Since the Trumpeter/HobbyCraft fighter nose in the F9F-2 and F9F-3 kits is far too pointy and has too much of a downward cant, Teknics has created this corrected fighter nose that snaps right onto the Trumpeter/HobbyCraft fuselage and significantly improves the look of the model's front end. 

Resin casting is of a very high quality and all the detail is very well done with no air bubbles.  This new resin set from Teknics will permit modelers to take their 1/48 Panther and build it with a correct nose. 

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