Review by Steve Bamford on Sept 23 2009

 

Here's a new resin 1/48 F4F Wildcat / Martlet Seat from Ultracast.   This seat replaces the kit seat which is lacking in detail to say the least.  This seat has fine detail and will look quite sharp on your next F4F Wildcat / Martlet.  You are to use the resin seat instead of the kit seat.  This seat has resin British Sutton Harness seatbelts.  If you plan on building the British version of the Wildcat.....known as the Martlet, then this seat is what you want to use.  One seat included in each set.

Ultracast seat on left compared with Tamiya kit seat on right.

There is 1 seat in each set.  Clean up is very minimal and the seat comes attached to a casting block with very easy to manage connection point and removal is easily done with no loss of detail.  The detail level and casting quality is flawless. 

The seat is a major focal point on models and this seat will really improve the look of your next F4F Wildcat / Martlet.

I would like to thank Ultracast for providing me with this review sample.
