Barely six weeks after their F-102 hit the market, Meng has released another all-new 1:72 scale kit, the Fiat G.91 R. Meng's 1:72 scale Gina comprises 84 parts in grey plastic and five parts in clear. Markings for three aircraft are included. The model may be built as either a Fiat G.91 R/l or R/3 thanks to separate gun panel inserts in the fuselage sides. Plastic parts are very well moulded with no imperfections in places that will be visible on the finished model. Even tricky areas such as the undercarriage doors and the backs of the one-piece wheels are free from ejector pin and sink marks. There is a raised circle on the pilot's seat but this appears to be a structural feature with additional detail. Panel lines are quite crisp and fine, especially the fuselage. The photos tend to overemphasise them due to the saturation of light, but they look very good on the surface of the plastic. For comparison, think of the type of surface detail on current Hasegawa kits. Details are also well done. The wheel wells and speed brake bays are nicely fitted out with raised structural detail.
