Quickboost QB72413 Spitfire Mk.IX position lights & rudder 1/72 Hasegawa – detail set for the Spitfire Mk.IX model

The Quickboost QB72413 Spitfire Mk.IX position lights & rudder 1/72 Hasegawa set is a professional collection of detail enhancement elements designed for plastic models of the Spitfire Mk.IX aircraft in 1/72 scale, manufactured by Hasegawa. Quickboost specializes in offering top-quality detail accessories, precisely cast in resin, which significantly increase the realism and level of detail of any model build.

Materials and set contents

The QB72413 set includes:

• Precisely replicated position lights – components that are often simplified or completely omitted in the basic version of the model. Their assembly allows for a realistic appearance of the wings and fuselage, consistent with the original.
• High-quality rudder – a highly detailed part that is a faithful replica of the original Spitfire Mk.IX aircraft component.

All parts in the set are made from polymer resin, characterized by high surface detail and durability. With this manufacturing technology, details are sharply defined and panel lines are far better reproduced than with plastic parts.
