    Bf109E

    Hi guy's



    I need your help I am thinking of getting HASEGAWA,S 1/32 Bf109E
    and was woundering if there are any decals for the 109E below in the pic.
    As i prefer the early 109's to the later models

    Without searching through all the decals lists from the various outlets Keith, I couldn't say if there are definitely decals for that specific aircraft, but there will be decals for the JG2 and 'Staffelhund' badges, and also the White 7, although possibly on different sheets. The aircraft is from I/JG2, and the biggest problem might be finding the narrow, early war fuselage crosses. I used some on a 1/32nd scale 109E4 built years ago, but I can't remember where they came from! (probably the spare decals file!)
    Before you go searching through lists at Hannant's or elsewhere, I'd suggest checking the web-site for Peddinghaus Decals, specialists in Luftwaffe markings. Also, check references for the position of the swastika. It's not shown on your profile, probably for the usual reasons, but it might have been painted across the fin and rudder. I'll have a look at my JG2 references, and see if I can find a pic of the aircraft, plus details etc.

    Good call Daniel!

    Keith, being Hasegawa it should be good - here's a review (one of a few on the net):

    Thanks guys! I usually google up on a kit before getting it - just write the aircraft name and scale, and the word 'review'...has saved me from an expensive mistake a few times already, aswell as introducing me to a new or better kit in a few cases!

    Nice work Daniel and Evan, and a useful review - think I will be getting the kit eventually, makes a reasonable, and cheaper alternative to the Eduard kits.

    Wasn't the old Matchbox kit a Richtofen bird?
    I've got the box-art in my minds-eye but can't quite remember if it's what Ellis is looking for
