FirstLook

 

Mini Craft Collection is a relatively new company from China that focuses on 3d printed seats and accessories for US military jet aircraft.

 

 

Judging by the item number, it would appear that this wing fold set for 1/48 scale legacy Hornets was their first release.

 

 

Mini Craft Collection Item No. MCC4801 is designed to work with both the Hasegawa and Kinetic F/A-18A/B/C/D kits.

The set arrives in a small stout silver tin. Inside, the resin parts are cushioned securely in foam.

 

 

The set is made up from 16 3d printed resin parts. The parts are crisply and impressively detailed.

Small parts are printed onto a resin base, so take care not to damage or lose them when you are freeing them from their printing blocks.

 

 

There are no striations or any other printing imperfections whatsoever.

A clearly printed instruction leaflet is also inside the can. Assembly looks straightforward with interlocking hinges plus detail parts.

 

 

This is a pretty simple but effective wing fold set for any 1/48 scale F/A-18A/B/C/D Legacy Hornet..

Thanks to Mini Craft Collection for the sample.
