Comments

Waxer
I wanted to use this figure / ejection seat in the Tamiya F-16C Block 25/32 kit 61101. The legs of the pilot are too wide for the front cockpit floor area. Also the election seat is too wide for the main cockpit.

I think you could heat the figure and gently bend the legs inwards slightly. But to fit the bang seat, you need to do surgery on either the Aerobonus resin and / or the styrene cockpit. So it is a lot of extra work. Certainly not a plug and play upgrade.

Not impossible to use with the Tamiya kit, but quite a lot of extra work.
