Airfix Alternative? - Italeri 1/72 Scale Me410 Inbox Review

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Greetings all, I ordered myself an Airfix ME410 but 4 months on and they are still not instock in Australia, so I thought I would checkout a recent reissue from Italeri; their 1999 tooling of the Me410 A-1 Hornisse in 1/72 Scale...
I apologise for this video coming later then planned, I have been a bit sick these last few days but luckily I got most of the recording done before I felt unwell :)
Thanks for watching and until the next one model on!

    Great review. A nice looking kit. The Italeri color pages for painting and decal placement are really nice. Take care!

    Thanks as always mate! It dosnt look bad for a 90s Italeri kit. Yeah the new coloured instructions are so much better! Take care too😁

    Looks pretty good. I have a comment about the canopy being molded in two halves. Wouldn't that leave a seam line on top of the canopy? That would be hard to sand down, wouldn't it? By the way, the Me410 was a redesigned version of the Messerschmitt Me210, which itself was supposed to be a replacement for the Me110.

    Cheers. Yeah that’s a possibility, I didn’t see much flashing and it was along one of the canopy frames, but I’m sure if I build it and there’s a seem like I’ll have some words to say😂 Yeah that’s right, there was also the 310 but it was not much of an improvement over the 210 beacuse of the wings. Thanks for watching mate😁👍🏻

    The grooves on the surface are much too pronounced. It would be necessary to fill them with putty and make new panel lines with a sharp knife. It reminds of the old Matchbox kit. And again the slats are not correct. They were retracted only in flight, when the aircraft was standing on the ground they were always extended. The ailerons were slotted on the original aircraft, the contours of the propellerblades are not correct too, they should be a bit wider towards the tip. So just another mediocre kit, but Italeri is commonly not known for high standards...

    Thanks for picking those up! It is definitely not going to be the same level as Airfix, but I guess that’s to be expected for a cheap reissue of a 90s mould. Still at least the price is almost half that of the Airifix kit so you get what you pay for and with work can get something decent. I’ll try and correct some of the issues when I build it and look forward to sharing what I find on the Airfix kit if and when it finally shows up. Thanks for watching😁👍🏻
