The cons of using a different kit to 'repair' my Revell F-16.

In this video I show that not all kits are scaled equally so as you will see, one can't just buy a kit from a different manufacturer to use as spare parts. No matter how decent the donor kit is.

Hi Robert! 😀It's the same with figures -- especially 1/35s. With Tamiya, I found that people seemed to have grown an awful lot bigger between WWII and the Vietnam War... 🤣

It makes a person wonder who was the model for the model figures. Just like seeing uniforms in a military museum, they look so short & thin.

I supose it is partly how they get the basic dimensions to make thier models, they may take the measurments from photo's or from actual measurments with a tape or rule. On top of that they have different build methods. Good video.

Thanks. I'm catching-up on old comments. Hope you get well soon.

You would of thought that the same aircraft would be the same size no matter what company made the kit!!

I suppose it depends where the part joints are located.
