Hello everyone.
Does anyone know whether the kit has the same problem with the propeller blade not being completely cast as with the kits from Hobby2000 (also Hasegawa as a basis)?

In my Eduard kit of the Marauder the propellers are completely cast out.

Hi Pals,

I've been impatient and so asked Eduard about PE part and it seems to be same parts than first Marauder kit Limited Edition n°2129.
Petra from customer service kindly sent me pictures of it
Here's a link to see them:

Enjoy 🙂

Hi everybody!

As a great Marauder fan I'm glad to hear about this Hasegawa F/G 1/72 version back on market! Thanks Eduard.
I'm just surprised not to see photo-etched parts on preliminaries images... From Eduard, it's a not common.
Does anyone know more about this?

Can't wait June to be here (to celebrate 80th D-Day and buying this kit ah ah).

Regards mates.

According to the text part (deepl.com can translate it) there is a colored PE sheet included. As you said, the images are preliminary and not all parts are designed yet.

Thanks for your answer.
I'm specialist enough in Marauder to know if there's enough difference between version B/C and F/G in dashboard or other places in the plane, but I hope there'll be a PE part like in 2129 kit here (maybe same one?):
Wine, Women & Song (B-26B/C ..Set (Eduard 2129-LEPT, 1:72)
It seems to be perfect for me, some PE but not too much for my average skills in detailling ^^
I'll wait and see so ^^
