These new detail set from Zactomodels gives you detailed parts for the 1/144 Revell F-15E.  The set includes 2 featherless exhaust cans, 2 ejection seats with molded in seat belts and a centerline pylon.  Also included is an AN/ALQ-131 ECM pod if you want to convert your kit to an F-15DJ.

The detail level is very much in the area of microscopic and borders on magic.  The seats is tiny beyond description, but somehow the seats are loaded with plenty and plenty of finely done detail.

The exhaust cans have more detail than I believed possible.....rich detail....crisp detail....piles of detail.  The centerline pylon and AN/ALQ-131 ECM pod have recessed panel lines that are crisp.......accurate and flawless......and very tiny.

Exhausts and ejection seats are molded in dark gray to simplify painting.  These parts can be dry-brushed with lighter shades to enhance the details.

I'm a big fan of 1/144 scale models and I can see  a whole new world of aftermarket parts coming out to cater to this ever growing micro scale.  Click on the pictures and remember...this is 1/144 scale.  In the ejection seat photo below.....I'm holding the ejection seat with very, very fine tweezers. 

You can buy this detail set direct from Zactomodels.

Buy 2 or more F-15 sets and get a discount!  $8 for the first set and $7 for each additional set, plus you get discounted combined shipping.

I would like to thank Chris at Zactomodels for providing me with this product sample.
