Trumpeteer a model company based in China produces a 1/32 A-10 its a bit pricey as I've seen it cost anywhere from $60 to $110.00 Dollars. They also produce the two seet version as well. Its quite a nice kit from what I hear. But still its not 1:18 Scale.

Lets see what would be a good song?

I'm Waiting on an A-10

Don't know when I'll be seeing it,

i'm standing here outside Wallmarts door,
I hate to nag you again mike to say "Lets try!"
but the dawn is breaking, it's early morn and My money's waiting, soon it will be gone!

i'm so ready and so anxious... i could die.

so tell me or lie to me
tell me that you'll make one for me
Tell us like you've never done before.
'cause i'm waiting on a A-10
i don't know when i'll be seeing it.
oh, man, i really want to know!


How was that? Okay I'll never do it again.

If and when we get an a A-10 what should we go for next? I'd like to go for a Skyraider, but I'm up for an F-4 too.

You guys are starting to make me feel bad about working just off the end of the runway of Davis Monthan and living in the pattern. I see 10-20 A-10's every day.

I'll say lucky. An A-10 making a quick bank and then turn is the most impressive thing I've ever seen in the sky.

With the Merril's Marauders being sold at TRU, this could mean a new relationship has started. A retailer that won't restrict 21st to a particular box size!! Better chance for the A-10 to be done!!


Bring out the A-10!!!!!
