AGB No.1: Hasegawa AV-8 Harrier Eggplane

[genosider]

I start my 3 build odyssey with the Harrier Eggplane.

Quite a rare kit, picked it up in Akihabara at Tam Tam Hobby. So yeah, in line with Ray's philosophy, once I finish this kit, i gotta go back to Japan for a replacement... ;D


Kawaii pilot sadly not included. What a tease!!!


One of my favorite things about Hasegawa is that their decals are always complete.

Filling up those pin marks in bare view; hallmarks of how old this kit really is.

The pitot tube. Gotta watch out, that part is fragile.
