For $140, you know it has to be good

(I hope

)
I am going to be really pissed off if it is an A-10, it's really not worth $140, for me at least. I pray for a B-25, or something bigger.
BTW, an idea, it was never said that it was a plane
Maybe 21stC made a super-detailed KoingsTiger, or BBI made a Mil Mi-24!
Low chance, but anyway.

Well if it is a modern jet that blows all the arguments for an A-10. Lets hope for that or an F-4 but I"ll take a B-25 as well.

For that price tag - it better be a WWII Bomber...
Now I can see the F4 or F14 hitting $100

Let's see "Skunk Works", $140.00. How about a 1/18th scale SR-71.

I hope it is indeed a small bomber. If that is the case, many of us said we would buy one right?

If its something from skunk works then it could be
P-38 Lightning
P-80 Shooting Star
XF-90
U-2
QT-2PC PRIZE CREW
Army-Lockheed YO-3A
A-12 Oxcart
SR-71 Blackbird
D-21 Tagboard
XST (Have Blue)
F-117 Nighthawk
F-35 Lightning II
X-27
Polecat
or if its something just from lockheed we could see a raptor,viking,c 130,or maybe a c141.

Ok for $140 at least a B-52 and maybe some star shells to go with it.

You never know who will be building some surface to air missiles. You have to keep an eye on those Iranians.

Yeah - I'd save up for a $140 small bomber - If this is a $140 F4 or F14 or even a blackbird - I'll pass - i try to stick with WWII - even though i have caught into the early jet craze - thank Mr. WM Clearance for that path leading to no more room.
and if it is a bomber - we should be able to remove sections of the plane for placement of crew etc...

F-14 or F-4 would be much more involved and larger then the F-16 or F-18, and those are running about $100. $140 for either sounds likely, if not low.

I agree Chunks. Of course it's all just speculation until Sunday but anything in the size range of an F-4, F-14, F-15, F-22 would be a bargain at $140. The only thing that makes a B-25 "big" is its wingspan and those are narrow and thin. There's probably at least 25% less plastic involved in a B-25 vs. an F-14.

How about a ch-47 The blackhawk was around 65 bucks so why not double it. It is the workhorse of the us army. I'm praying for a hooker.
HOOAH!
