Very interesting video for owners or perspective owners. I have two, standard VF84 and special (with lighting) VF154. There were no broken parts on my models and I had no problem with the canopies either. Like yours, the large step door was fixed. As a result of your video, I used a scalpel to release the door on theVF 84. On the VF 154 version there was a very good guide included on both lighting batteries and undercarriage deployment. Very useful. A nice model.
its avery nice video of your F14 Tomcat but I noticed an BBI F18 under the display of the Tomcat, can You review the BBI F18 Hornet cuz that would be great .
No way to open the central step Bino, I just give up a few moments ago; I'm afraid they actually (super) glued it becuse I've even broken a lancet blade trying to open it.
Not a real problem because, when the pilots' models will be available they'll be put in the cock-pit for good! Have you got any idea if/when they'll be released and/or will be available?
Hi from Canada! I have one JSI F-14 as well. It is so nice. I like the updated paint details you add to your F-14. Just one little thing you shoud correct... At 5:25 we can see the two black belly "wing" are backward, they must point the other way around. Other than that it is perfect!
@volksboy79 - Thanks for that I have no idea how I managed to get them the wrong way - I feel so stupid - but thanks for pointing it out - I have corrected it - I have a stand for it now - I will post a short video soon - :-)
Tks 4 the video man, I need time and patiece to open the central step. I had a sp. version too, but I had to bring it to a modelling shop here, in Rome, because the electric connection were a real mess. Tks to the owner, who builds trains' dioramas too, now all the lights work! As far as regards the main undercarriage I used small parts of "invisible" self-adesive.
@deioballa - good to hear that you have sorted out your problems - I had a stand made for mine to take the weight off the undercarriage - I will post a short video soon :-)
@SuperFightin - Yep thats what I had to do - be very careful and take your time try not to force it as it will damage the edge on the TOP part of the step - if you try to leaver it out -

@Binome909 well, I managed to open the two small ones, but I still haven't been able to open the large one. maybe I have to take a scalpel as well...
