Kinetic-Eduard F-16I PE cockpit set
The most contentious is the remove before flight tags. the printing is poor quality and blurred, hence it is not easy to read at all. reminds me of the old decals from airfix that sometimes printed off center
the poor printing quality on the PE parts also cause some graininess
compare the pilots right console. the PE is flat, but attempts to lend depth by providing a second layer of PE for the screen mountings.
ejector seat pulling pins are nice though
overall i'll say that the PE is useful for detailing up the screens and displays. because it will take a 0.0005 brush or a toothpick to paint out those details. However, the lack of pop up details, buttons, and moreover the misaligned printing and generally grainy colours means that it will be better to try painitng the plastic yourself. Especially considering that it costs USD$10..
2 stars out of 5. not a definite must buy, but some parts can be used. such as seatbelts..

and the flatness and lack of depth of the PE part, might as well stick to the 3D feel of the kinetic kit plastic part
so what did you expect, since the rear is in metal colour, we have to paint the other side of the RBF tags?compare the pilots right console. the PE is flat, but attempts to lend depth by providing a second layer of PE for the screen mountings.
