This set includes main gear struts, the nose gear strut, part of the nose gear actuator, and the front part of the nose gear landing gear doors.  The Set is crisply cast in brass, and the parts very detailed.  Very intricate details are clearly visible, including the brake and hydraulic service lines.    This set is a big improvement over kit the kit supplied items.

The gear are a drop in replacement for the kit parts, there is no special preparation of the Hasegawa kit.  The legs fit into the slots provided for the kits gear.  This set will be most useful to anyone wishing to add some extra detail to any F-86 kit in 1/48  scale.

I would like to thank Cutting Edge Modelworks for providing me with this review sample.
