A quick FAQ on the 1/35 Shamrock Flamethrower Set and Metal Barrel Set: what each option part contains, how resin and metal differ, and which one to choose for your build.
Quick answer
Choose the 1/35 Shamrock Flamethrower Set when you want resin detail parts for a flamethrower-equipped build, and the 1/35 Shamrock Metal Barrel Set when you want a metal barrel upgrade. Both are 1/35 option parts; the flamethrower set is urethane resin, while the barrel set is metal.
Resin versus metal: what the material difference means for your build
The Shamrock Flamethrower Set is a urethane resin assembly kit, while the Shamrock Metal Barrel Set is a metal part. That difference affects how you prepare and finish each one: resin parts need cleanup of casting remnants and are best glued with cyanoacrylate, while metal parts hold fine shapes well but require care when bending or attaching.
Neither listing states a specific vehicle or figure compatibility beyond the 1/35 scale, so check your kit's mounting points before committing to either set.
Common questions about the Shamrock option parts
- What exactly comes in the Shamrock Flamethrower Set?
- The set is a urethane resin assembly kit that includes barrels and other flamethrower detail parts. The listing does not itemize every piece, so treat the photo as a sample and check the parts against your reference before assembly.
- Is the Shamrock Metal Barrel Set a complete replacement?
- No. It is a single metal barrel part in 1/35 scale, intended as an upgrade or replacement for a kit barrel. It does not include a flamethrower assembly or other detail parts.
- Can I use both sets together?
- Possibly, if your build calls for both a metal barrel and a flamethrower detail set. However, the listings do not confirm that the parts are designed to fit together, so test-fit before gluing. Dry-fit all resin and metal parts before applying adhesive.
- What kind of paint works on these parts?
- The flamethrower set is unpainted resin and the barrel set is metal. For resin, wash off mold release and use a primer suitable for urethane resin. For metal, a metal-compatible primer helps paint adhere. The listings do not specify a brand, so test on a hidden area first.
- Are these option parts compatible with any 1/35 kit?
- Scale alone does not guarantee a drop-in fit. The listings do not name specific donor kits, so compare the mounting points and dimensions with your model before purchase.
Product facts at a glance
- 1/35 Shamrock Flamethrower Set: 1/35 scale urethane resin assembly kit including barrels and other flamethrower detail parts; unpainted. You get multiple resin components for a flamethrower build, but you must clean up, assemble, and paint them yourself.
1/35 Shamrock Flamethrower Set - 1/35 Shamrock Metal Barrel Set: 1/35 scale metal barrel part. A metal barrel can replace a plastic one for a more durable, consistent finish, but it is a single-part upgrade rather than a full detail set.
