Cast bronze legs make up most of the 1:48 aircraft metal landing gear here, covering Spitfire, Fw 190, F4F, F6F and Phantom builds, with machined legs for the Skyshark alongside. They drop into the locating points of the original kit part and carry the weight of a 1:48 airframe for years without bowing. Every set names the kit it was designed around, so match it to the model actually on your bench.
1:48 is where size and detail meet most comfortably, and that is exactly why a gear leg which holds its geometry for a decade pays for itself. Pick the airframe first from 1:48 aircraft model kits, then compare the other sizes and read the fitting notes in the metal landing gear overview. Wheel wells and gear doors are finished off with 1:48 aircraft photo-etch.
