HGW | #132562: Hansa-Brandenburg W.29 Seat Belts
Reviewed by Kevin Futter
Czech firm HGW has extended its growing range of microtextile seat belt sets with a new set for the Wingnut Wings W.29 kit. In common with all its recent sets, this one consists of a fret of soft, paper-like material ("microtextile"), into which is laser cut the seat belt straps themselves. These are pre-coloured and feature some very fine printed stitching on the straps.
Also included in the set is a small fret of photo-etched buckles and restraining hardware. This has been produced by Eduard specifically for this set.
Assembly instructions are printed on the rear packaging card, and consist of some isometric line drawings with colour-coded numbering to differentiate the textile components from the photo-etched parts. Assembly appears complicated, but that's the nature of the beast with this type of product.
Conclusion
Overall this is a very nice addition to the HGW range, and a handy upgrade for Wingnut Wings W.29 kit. Recommended!
Thanks to HGW for the review sample.
