Having the Rockin’ Rhino (F4J Phantom) kit in my stash I was excited to be able to review the upgrade kit. I wanted to see if it would add anything to an already highly detailed kit. Well I was not disappointed as this set really does add a lot of additional and very visible details to this super kit.

The photo etch parts are for the:

  • Cockpit surround detail
  • Canopy details
  • Landing gear doors,
  • Landing gear bay interior detail
  • Weapon details

In the packet is:

  • 2 x Photoetch sheets
  • 1 Instruction sheet

I did find two small issues with this set:

  1. There are a lot of areas of the kit parts that need to have the surface details removed and this was not indicated on the instructions.
  2. Part numbers 71, 70, 76 and 77 were reversed on the instruction.

Summary

This is a must have set for the already fantastic kit from Eduard. If you have the Rockin’ Rhino kit you really must invest in this set.

Thanks go to Eduard for providing this set to review and IPMS USA for allowing me to review it for them.
