Faced with competition from Korea and China, Japan's plastic-kit giant, Tamiya, answers the hell with a new 1/32 scale F-16CJ. It comes packed in a sturdy box that can be used to carry the finished model with the ordnance and vertical stabilizer removed. You get 13 sprues of light-gray plastic parts, two trets of photoetched metal parts, a bag of metal pins tor ordnance mounts and static dis-sipaters, and a machined pilot tube. The landing gear is made of white metal. Also provided is a bag of screws to hold things together plus a nose weight molded to fit in front of the cockpit tub. Two decal sheets are provided, one with colorful tail markings tor tour different squadrons and markings and data for all the ordnance. The second sheet is mostly gray markings tor tail codes, stars and bars, and stenciling. Tamiya provides several "poly-caps" - O-rings - to allow easy installation and removal of wing ordnance and the vertical and horizontal stabilizers.
