REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES: resin, for Fine Molds kit.

Here's another of those neat Bagheera upgrade sets. This one is a Bf-109K replacement wing. This is a pre-preproduction set and a good thing, too, as it isn't quite ready for prime time. In addition to a few air voids, the two radiators are not well molded and I have three upper radiator coolant doors and only one lower so I couldn't use it in a build anyway. These are shown on the lower row. The bits above the wing are the ailerons and the flaps. Despite the flaws, it does show the basic bits and I've been assured that the production pieces will be to a better quality. The wing itself has the slats molded as deployed, just as you'd normally see the plane on the ground. Their production sets are nicely done and well worth it.  Keep checking the hyperlink below for the actual release date.
