Sorry if this is old news - I don't really follow this scale but saw some products in this scale that BBI/Merit had in their display cases at the show yesterday:

I hope the SBD has the tail gun in it instead of just the canopy.

markecho, thanks for posting those!
Were you able to get info on the 1/32 line such as retractable landing gear, store availability, price, etc.?

The phantom and dauntless look great! And they look like production models rather than mockup placeholders. The wing fold and cockpit hinge on the dauntless and the almost all white molded togethere sidewinders on the phantom are a giveaway on that.
Shin's wishlist for 1/18 and 1/32 with retractable landing gear and more:

F-14 Tomcat, F-8 Crusader, A-4 Skyhawk, F-105 Thunderchief, A-6 Intruder, F-15C, F-15E Strike Eagle
