One does not look a gift Phantom in the intakes.
However, one sometimes observes that the makers of the kits may over-reach themselves. They break up a design into mouldable parts but fail to tell their mould-makers to talk to each other at the time.
There are a number of interesting points of difference in the fuselage of the Hasegawa Phantom as well as expansion gaps on the underside in case your hobby workshop freezes in winter…
The gaps will be dealt with and the ridges smoothed – in the knowledge that a coat of dull weathering will remove these from concern. If this were a modern kit with engraved panel lines and pretensions to glory, there would be grieving.
