i took the plunge and got a b-2. I was kind of regretting buying it afterwards, because it's so underscale and by the time it arrived i had planned to sell it.
I let it sit unpened for a couple of days, since it would be easier to ship it that way but i figured i might as well take a peek inside.
So i carefully opened it and was really impressed by how good it looks. It's a nice beefy size. The cockpit area is actually overscale with the rest of the aircraft, why i have no idea probably because some of the r/c gagetry goes inside there, but the benefit is that two 1/18 scale pilot figures will easily fit inside, with room to spare. It's sort of like something hasbro would makee for 3 3/4 inch figures, with the overly large cockpit to accomodate figures.
Anyway, after looking at it i am definitely going to keep it. It looks too good to pass up and is pretty much in scale with my BMF and AT-AT, so i figure what the heck.
My only complaint is that the paint job is a bit thin in a few spots. You can see whitish foam 'pin prick' spots at certain angles. Another coat of paint from the opposite direction the first one was sprayed at would have solved this. It's really not bad though and not noticable from a few feet away.
That one little complaint aside, i'm quite glad to have it. No chance of ever seeing one in anything approaching 1/18, i'm afraid.
Next, i have to consider getting a C-17....
i never met an airplane i didn't like...
