I voted no cause I wanted to wait and see if JSI has addressed its quality control issues.
I do want one, but I don't want to be stuck with a lemon with no recourse, and left hanging.

Yes, I'm interested in the Sukhoi, when it gets a single seat and Russian markings.
Russian fighter without a legitimate Russian scheme? Unthinkable.
Fool me once on Daimatian Cat, shame you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

After the F-14 fiasco,I will not pre-order the JS-11,or the F-15.
I will wait for proper reviews from non biased collectors.
I am also not willing to get a repaint done on a model that costs this much.
If JSI has not learned from the Tomcat,we may be in for more disappointment.
I sincerely hope not,as I really want both of these models.

nope
That's the other thing - you don't save with a pre-order! The planes don't sell out right away, so there is no advantage to pre-ordering.YT wrote:I will by one, but not pre-order. My pre-order cost me $50 more than if I would have waited. It is not that important for me to get it that fast.

bottom line Aferg in another post said his F-18 nose dived and bounced a few times making the fall - and the F-14 would most likely shatter.
As much as I want a F-14 Ill wait for prices to go down at WM.
Just too much money for me to justify getting a really cool toy/model that I want.

I likely will buy it when, and if, it is produced, but no preorder...I haven't preordered Passion Wagon either, but I intend to get that one as well...
In today's market, speaking as a consumer, I don't believe it is neccesary to preorder one of these planes (exception would be ultra limited edition like the lighted Spotcat)...However, I understand why the etailers want your committment to help with their ordering, but the "Spotcat" pretty well took care of that issue!
In my opinion, put out a quality product of a desirable aircraft with the right paint scheme at a reasonable price (what the market will support) and it will sell itself.
