got mine preordered already. I agree that I hope this all leads to a B-25. The possibilities would be endless with it. A squadron of B-25's hanging from the ceiling with their P-51 escorts or a gun nose version swooping down on a hapless japanese transport -what a sight.

I'd be more impressed by the size of that person's ceiling.

In a heartbeat I'd order a B-25 though... That was one I really was hoping we'd see aftet its rumor. Big and expensive? Sure, but I was giddy at the thoughts of a ETO deco and crewing it up nice and spiffy.

Judging by the price tag on the P-51 repaint (and that's a 3,200 piece production run), a brand new 1/18 scale B-25 model with all the bells and whistles would be around $1,500 ($2,000 if JSI produces it). So I'd say chances of it ever being released are slim to none. :cry:

But look at the bright side. If we buy enough of the over priced Mustang repaints we may actually have an opportunity to pay $500 plus for a B-25. :wink: On a serious note, if AG does produce a B-25, it will be very expensive considering the Mustang will cost $100 out the door. For now, I am happy with my slightly out of scale Flying Styro B-25. It looks nice and it can actually fly. I still think one of the current 1/18 companies should release some of their planes in kit form.
