Re: merit Announcment

Oh god please be the F-15, that's already tooled and is smaller than the F-14 by a decent amount.
I'd buy that pre-order instantly.

And I'll be able to say "the Eagle has landed"

Re: 1/18th Scale A-10 Advanced Planning Stage Input Needed !

so we're thinking 500$ for the kit, how much would just a base coat of paint run?
I think I may be jumping in on this.

I believe that pic is from Toy Fair 2010.
Unlike the SU, they had a F-15 on the wall, and at one point on the table.

it's got to be in a better release position then the SU.

Re: What Might Have Been ....Will The A-10 Become A Reality

I love the A-10, and Pik is a amazing artist, but for that price point, I'll wait for a manu to come along and produce one, or never. I want a out of the box A-10, just like the F-16 and F-18, and it can be done for 300, just like the F-14, the tomcat is so much more pieces. I refuse to believe that...

Bad cat has it for $99.96

Since I'm one state away, the 2-3$ difference is worth waiting extra days from far away dealers.

Re: How Much Are You Collectors Willing To Pay For A Hind ?

People should mind that..

If there is an Add-on kit for 250$, and the Hind body is 80$, it stays under 350$.
So saying you'll buy one for 25-350, should be the same as an add on.


I'd buy a Add-on if it kept the price under 400$.
