Great Wall Hobby Lockheed T-33A Shooting Star 1:48

February 3, 2017 By Francis Porter

Conclusion

What a brilliant model!…the plane itself looks great, but the kit is just a joy to build, the fit is perfect and within no time you can have a superb replica of the iconic early jet in your collection. With so many air forces using this plane as a trainer, the choice of scheme is really wide… so please yourself go for the T-33 you will be amazed by this little Gem from GWH.

A big thank you to Matthew John form Albion Alloy for all the GSI products used for this build.

A big thank you also to Eric Montoya from Aztek decals of Mexico for providing this superb decals sheet.

Thank you also to Bob Brown form MDC providing the PE seat harness.
