Hi Bob,bobb428 wrote:Its amazing how most members on here just can't help whinning and bitching about every model produced. From the exhaust on the Dauntless to weathering and gear on the F-14. If these companies were not making anything then the bitching would stop. If companie reps read these boards, I could see why they would say screw it. It aint worth it!

P.s. I love all 3 of my Tomcats, good or bad Its one awesome plane!
You know the JSI F-14 was the sole reason almost every etailer on your side of the pond suddenly (after many years of 21st Century Toys QC snafus) stopped accepting returns on 1/18 items, don't you? That's why you can't return any defective JSI Spotcat. So you might as well love them.
From the Flying Mule website:
DISCLAIMER - Please Read
Please keep in mind that large scale plastic models are not scaled-up versions of their smaller diecast cousins. They are pre-assembled from a large number of components and production compromises are often made to keep them within reach of the casual collector's budget. Factory painting, glueing and alignment discrepencies are often visible upon close inspection.
. . .
In summary, with a little effort, these models can make fantastic, attention-grabbing showpieces from a reasonable viewing distance. Up close however, their more toy-like qualities will become apparent. We regret that we are unable to accept returns on these items for minor fit and finish issues.
Dude, good or bad JSI screwed up... It's a fact.
