The fact that BBD is one the THE most recognizable P-51's of all time is probably just a little bit of the reason for the special edition box. Maybe 21st is going in a new direction with customizing the boxes specific to the aircraft...I think it's pretty friggin' cool myself. I hope they only run them briefly in this box. Then we can read more whining from early on naysayers about "wish I woulda" as was the case with Tender Terror.
If they make the Phantom then cool, if it's out as projected even cooler. If it doesn't come out till next Christmas that's fine with me as well.
Without 21st boys we'd likely not have this hobby right now.

Wow, you're right, I keep forgetting that 21st is our 1:18 savior and can do no wrong, and that anybody who even mentions that they are even slightly unpleased with their practices are "nay sayers" and "whiners" and are marked for quick retaliation from their devout followers. Thanks for reminding me, now I'll go wash my mouth out with soap for being a bad boy on the forum.
(I must have been crazy to think 21st could learn some custormer consideration and care lessons from Admiral)

Hey, great smarta$$ reply. Now let me put my post BACK into context. Naysayer, referring to the spec. ed. BBD, NOT 21st's business practices, "whiner": guys who negged out an early item only to WHINE about it later on how they shoulda got one afterall. If you don't like the new box then don't buy the damn plane, don't blow negative smoke up everyone elses butt. Who said they are our saviour? They did start the damn 1/18 aircraft/armor line you know, or do you...
I am so tired of threads going off into left field. This thread is about the new spec. ed. BBD, not a freakin' Phantom! That's the one thing I despise about this forum, too many threads get bastardized into something else. Lets keep it to topic.
I guess I'm "gullable", damn wish I was a primodonna...
