Hobby Boss 85802 1/48 P-51D Mustang IV Collector Edition Kit  [HB-85802]

P-51D Mustang IV in 1/48 Scale: Historic Fighter Model

The P-51D Mustang IV represents a major step in wartime fighter capability, blending aerodynamic efficiency and firepower. Originating from a 1940 British request, the Mustang later saw action in many zones and flew escort duties for B-29 bombers over the Pacific. The P-51D iteration, with its bubble canopy and heavier armament, reached a production total of 7,956 aircraft.

Hobby Boss reproduces the Mustang in 1/48 scale with careful attention to fuselage shape and panel definition. The static kit consists of over 40 parts across five sprues, delivering a neat assembly sequence and a compact model that displays well on a shelf or in a diorama base.

Tips for a Clean Finish

Model builders will appreciate the detailed panel lines and straightforward fit. Take time on seam work and paint masking to achieve an authentic look that highlights the Mustang's characteristic lines.
