Those are some nice figures and vehicles. Thanks for the info.

Got my White 7 yesterday. IMO one of the best schemes to date for the 262, nothing flashy just all business. Thanks Admiral! :D

Finally saw the White 7 in person - much more impressive than the pics would have you believe. Really great scheme!

Finally opened my white 7 today and it is one great looking bird.
I had already forgotten how great Admiral's packaging is. Their packaging makes it easy to put back in box and takes less room to store when displaying one paint scheme at a time. Based on pictures alone, I think the 21st 262's tires may look better, but overall this version is definitely a keeper.

Can you post photo's? I understand one of the reason's for the, at least obvious errors, is a cultural thing in China that calls for a known error to allow the bad spirits to escape. Could you have found one for this?

Thanks much.

Uh....... what the?
I got 2 in from Military toys. Mama Spike says that I can't open them till Crhistmas. I feel like a 6 year old. It is kind of fun actualy having to wait. I also have a couple of 21st tigers and 2 crashed Shermans that I won on e-bay that she is putting the strong arm on as well.
