You noticed the same episode about dogfighting bombers had a sweet story on it about a Dauntless pilot taking out 3 Zeros--2 with his .50 cals and 1 with his wing! Had the story about the Thud had some F-4s in it, as well, it would have been like the Admiral Toys 2007 line-up special :)

Now if only we could get the Thud now that is a plane that I will get :wink: The show was great. The Dauntless story would make a cool diorama. I need to get one more Zero. :wink:

I have no interest in the Skyraider. I think its a beauty of a plane though but it dont do anything for me. I'm a WW2 guy so I'll stick with that. BUT I would get an F-14 Tomcat if they ever released one.

Amen. There are just so many more historically significant a/c out there that can be done plus with room considerations I'll have to pass. Thought they'd do this one LONG after the A-10 was released. Are the manufacturers 'toying' with us or what?? :lol: :lol: Sorry, couldn't resist that one.
