About product

Wheel set Grumman TBM-3 Avenger 1:32 (Reskit)

A resin replacement wheel set in 1:32 scale from the Reskit brand, intended for building a model of the carrier torpedo bomber Grumman TBM-3 Avenger, in the variant the maker describes as land based. It is not a kit of the aircraft or a part of it to build on its own, but an accessory that replaces the wheels from the plastic box and lifts the most visible part of the undercarriage. Check the exact number of parts, the contents of the package and whether painting masks are enclosed on the packaging — do not count on them in advance.

The real subject

The Avenger was a three-seat carrier torpedo bomber of American manufacture, taken into service in 1942. It had an enclosed bomb bay in the fuselage, a dorsal gun turret and a folding wing for parking in the hangar of an aircraft carrier. The TBM version was built under license at the Eastern Aircraft division of General Motors and was powered by a Wright R-2600 radial engine. Besides carrier service, machines of this type also flew from land bases, where the running gear wore differently than on a deck.

Building and painting tips

First wash the resin parts in lukewarm water with detergent, because release agent residue from the mold prevents the paint from adhering. Cut the casting blocks off with a fine modeling saw, not with nippers, and protect your airways when sanding. They are glued with cyanoacrylate; ordinary cement for plastic does not hold on resin. Apply a base coat before painting, separate the hub from the tire by masking and finish the rubber with matte varnish. Fine dust applied with a dry brush onto the tread gives the wheels credibility.

Who the set is for

  • modelers building the Avenger in 1:32 scale who want more accurate wheels than those from the box
  • anyone interested in working the undercarriage up in a large scale, where every detail shows
  • builders of dioramas with the aircraft's ground support
  • mildly advanced modelers who have already worked with resin and cyanoacrylate

This is an accessory, not a complete model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. It is a resin accessory, specifically a set of replacement wheels. The Avenger kit itself has to be obtained separately.

Cyanoacrylate. Cement for plastic does not bite into resin and the joint does not hold.

Yes. Wash them in lukewarm water with detergent, so that the release agent from the mold is removed, and then apply a base coat.

Check the contents of the package beyond the name on the packaging. Reckon on the set being aimed at the wheels.
