Eduard CX091 F2A Buffalo HASEGAWA 1/72 – Mask Set for Aircraft Model

Eduard CX091 F2A Buffalo HASEGAWA 1/72 is a high-quality set of masks dedicated to the 1:72 scale F2A Buffalo plastic model by Hasegawa. This product is a precise modeler's accessory, making it easier to professionally paint the cockpit canopy glazing and other transparent or hard-to-reach areas of the aircraft.

Purpose and Compatibility

This set has been specially designed for the F2A Buffalo model, an American fighter used primarily by the United States during the early phase of World War II, as well as by Finland, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. The Hasegawa 1:72 scale version is considered one of the most accurate replicas of this aircraft available on the model market.

Historical Background of the F2A Buffalo

The Brewster F2A Buffalo was the first single-wing carrier-based fighter of the United States. It served mainly during World War II, from 1939 to 1942, in the Pacific theater, participating in air battles such as Midway, and in Finland—under the name Brewster Model 239—in the Winter War and Continuation War against the USSR, as well as in the Dutch East Indies. Although the aircraft received mixed reviews, it earned a reputation for reliability in Northern Europe.

Materials and Set Contents

• High-quality self-adhesive masks cut from special, flexible modeling foil
• Precisely shaped to fit the F2A Buffalo 1:72 scale canopy frames
• Detailed mask application instructions
• No photo-etched or resin parts included – masks are dedicated for painting purposes only

Why Choose Eduard CX091?

The Eduard 1/72 mask set is the perfect solution for modelers aiming for professional canopy painting results without the time-consuming and risky process of cutting custom masks. It makes it easier to accurately reproduce the lines of glazing and prevents paint from seeping, which translates to a neater final appearance. Highly recommended for both beginners and advanced modelers – we rate the application difficulty of these masks at 2/5.
