Review: 1/72 scale Hobbyboss A-4F Skyhawk – Unboxing

August 11, 2020 · in Reviews · · 4 · 2.6K

Greetings to all imodelers ,

This is another unboxing of the 1/72 scale A-4F Sky Hawk from the Vietnam war period. The kit is well produced and has three decal option all during the Vietnam war from the carriers USS Bon Homme Richards and USS Hancock. The plastic part looks really crisped and neat , However I do believe Hobbyboss did use Hasegawa's Skyhawk model to produce this kit. For the full review is in the link below. thanks !

  1. Nice presentation, Mee Wan. I can see that this is not a snap kit, but a very detailed and indee a very good one!

  2. Thanks for this quick review!
    I don´t see any connections to Hasegawa´s 1/72 kit. It looks like Hobby Boss copied its own 1/48 Skyhawk and shrunk it into 1/72 scale. Now, a side-by-side comparison with Fujimi´s A-4E/F would be very interesting.
    A pity there are -again- no seperate slats with HB´s A-4.
    Don´t use the decals without doing a research by your own before. The decal sheet was only shown a few seconds, but at least I can tell that "VA-16" isn´t correct for the "Lady".
