New Red Devils Hornet

I haven't seen this posted before...so forgive me if I'm late with this. BCA has received a shipment of "Red Devils" BBI FA-18 Hornets that have a "blem" on the strakes. The erronious markings on the strakes can easily be fixed, but BCA has them ready to ship for around $70 before shipping. The rest of the bird is gorgeous and well worth it. Check them out at Bad Cat today!

Yes it is in the bbi thread but worthy of mention. Very cool of bbi and BCA to recognize a mistake and pass on savings.

Savings?
What savings?
It's 70 bucks damn it!

Cool I was assigned to VMFA 122 (F4's)in the USMC when I went over to Japan. They were just phasing in the F-18's

Japanese hobby shops are so cool, everything you could possibly want, even down to replaceable sprues for kits.

What would be a good price to you?!?!?! $5?

No, not $5, more like $55

Kind of neat.

Not MY cup of tea, mind you, but kind of neat.

Of course, I already have THREE F-18s, so I guess I don't have too much room to talk (or much room for storage...)

I ordered yesterday and I received an e-mail stating that it had already been shipped. I cannot wait.

Careful TKO -

As the 21c fanclub president, you don't want Roy or any of the other 21c employees that sometimes browse this board finding out that you also buy the competition's wonderful products

It is a cool paintscheme and it finally gives us a USMC jet

Too bad I already have a BBI F-18 and no space for another...

We are looking for another house.....Lord know we need one now, I dont have any room for my 1:18th scale aircraft any more.

when the F-18 first came out a couple of years ago it was $80. $70 for an exclusive is a steal.
