This latest release
from Aerobonus features
two 1/48 B8V20 Russian rocket launchers.
These resin rocket
launchers are made up of 3 main parts for the body of the unit and then you get
a large number of rockets to insert in the rocket launcher tubes after all
painting is complete.

The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free, but there is an issue with the decals. Aerobonus
has opted to "protect" their decals with wax paper. The paper is
not all that waxy and the decals stick to the paper and when you peel back the
paper you destroy the decals. On previous reviews I have pointed this
problem out to them and they have been very quick to mail out replacement
decals. So they are aware of the problem and they choose to keep using the
paper to "protect" the decals. You can see the problem with the
decals in the photo below. This isn't an isolated problem as most or all
of the recent batch of reviews from Aerobonus have damaged decals due to the
paper they choose to staple to the decal sheet.
This is a first
class protect, but it is a shame the decals are unusable. I hope Aerobonus
put some thought into this problem with the decals.
You can purchase this and other
fine resin detail items directly from Aerobonus
or from the many retailers that carry their products.
I would like to
thank Aerobonus for
providing me with this product sample.
