Admiral toys.....Bring on the F-4.

Post by cornbreadfred » Sun May 10, 2009 8:47 pm

I was thinking, since we might be getting an 1/18th scale F-14 Tomcat, do you think Admiral might rethink their F-4 Phantom project. We have seen pictures of that prototype, and it looks great. Please Jason, think about maybe making that big Phantom one day... :)
Fred, really looking forward to the JSI 1/18th scale Grumman F-14 Tomcat.

YES it's about time since there is a gap and no risk of 21st CT XD making unexpected crazy annoucement !

Jason should seize the opportunity !!!!!!

I really need to plan carefully because an F14 + F4 will take a LOT of space !!!!!!! :shock:
1/18 mirage 2000 & RAFALE should i say more ?

Lets hope JSI has a little more scruples than to announce something that doesn't exist, just to keep their competitor from doing one like 21st did.

I'm totally into buying one. I don't really care if it's Navy white or Airforce camo.
Both schemes are exciting.

I find the grey of the modern jets kinda boring, though I would buy one now given the chance if at a reasonable price.

I totally agree here. I really hope Admiral brings us the F-4 Phantom in 1/18 scale as well as a few other modern jets.

Their prototype 1/18 scale F-4 is mouth dropping.

Knowing how incredible their F-4 could be makes me really hope that one day they will do the A-10 and other jets in 1/18 over any other company.

Just hope JSI will work with them as bbi seems to be doing.... :D
Go Ugly Early in 1/18!!

Still waiting and wishing for a 1/18 A-10 Warthog.

I hope Admiral releases a 1/18 Steve Ritchie F-4.....Hobby Master's 1/72 Ritchie F-4 was almost completely sold out in pre-order. I was lucky to find one at the last minute.

Having both of those planes would be way to cool. And who knows, maybe someone will release an F-111 :shock:. Now that would be awesome.

I would be happy to see the SBD I have had on pre-order from Admiral for about 3 years! JD

I think Admiral will wait to see how the JSI F-14 does first before committing to anything like the F-4.

I hope they don't depend on my vote because they way I see it is this. I have $300 in my hand to buy a plane and I can choose between the F-14 or F-4 then it would be the F-4 hands down in any scheme. I would actually buy two F-4s before I would pop the money on a F-14.

Just me though (as you can see the JSI F-14 doesn't do a thing for me).

Let's go Jason.....Skyraider and F-4 by Christmas.
Is that you John Wayne, this is me!!
