Re: AC on sale

I like getting stuff on sale as much as the next guy but if you will wait a year to save $25 on a plane then you really have no business being one of the guys who complains about delays or when we will see stuff. Also, we lose credibility in what we want to see made. That is, we say we want this or...

I I saw Admiral's F-4C prototype had the dorsal "clothesline" antenna--which is looks unappealing to me. We call it a ladder antenna and it was only on one variant that we were to produce, the D variant. We have three different spines to this aircraft ready for tooling, each back plate for the airc...

Yeah but Admiral still got what they wanted for the planes when Bad Cat bought them from them. They apparantly have a bunch and just need to clear them out. Nice answer, vmf214. You are correct. We have a very good relationship with Bad Cat, as with the many other retailers that carrying our produc...

I personally couldn't imagine BBI making the landing gear retract on this model. It was the single most complicated item to engineer on the AT 1:18 F-4. I couldn't imagine making it work in 1:32 scale! On the F-4, the gear moves in two directions before moving into a locked position (and that is sim...

Once tooling is completed it will take anywhere from 3 months to a year before you see a final product. There are a lot of adjustments and mods that happen after tooling is completed.

Thank you for the warm words of encouragement. The F-4 master model has not been sold, nor will it ever (well… maybe I have my price). I think, as of now, I am the proud owner of the only F-4 in 1:18 scale. So I guess I am the winner of the holy-grail contest of rarest birds. FieroDude is correct. T...

where does it say the 262 retails for anywhere near $90?? It is $65 (or less) at BCT, whose prices are not really low and it will probably be $40 at WM. 21c said their F-4 is going to retail for $89.99 and i'm sure it will. This statement is probably true and that is unfortunate for the online reta...
