Wow thats very cool, to bad there will only be five made. That would be
something Pegasus Models should do in 1:18.

$45,000 + ??????
Jeez I am undercharging big time .
Only 5 made ?
At that price they only have to make 5 of them.

Truth, pickelhaube! Doesn't a real one go for only a few dollars more?

And normandy, I see what you've done there, you have correctly predicted the past!

daft price

was a time Pegasus was very seriously considering making a 1/18 X-15. Supposedly, whether they made it or not hinged on how well their Bell X-1 did. As we all know, for whatever reason, the Pegasus X-15 never happened.

However, Pegasus is still around and there would still be a lot of demand for a 1/18 X-15 (and Me 163 Komet for that matter).

I definitely remember talk of a Pegasus X-15, maybe it will see the light of day...in the meantime, anyone with some spare time and an extra $200 can put one of these together:

Also has a 1/18 Panther kit for sale:

This same seller at one point was offering a 1/18 kit of a SR 71...but if I dared bring one of them into my house, the thunderclap you would hear would be the sound of my wife kicking my ass out the door at Mach 2...
