yes, I can only agree with you! The F/A-18 is a real beauty. Which one did you get?

I put off getting into the 1/18 modern jets while they were still relatively cheap...I waited until they got expensive on ebay and THEN I decided to start collecting...three F18's one F-16, and two F14's later, I now have a special display area for them!
I do love my 1/18 modern (and earlier) jets

Digger,
Thanks for the Toysnswords link - I found a BBI 1/18 BF-109 I've been looking for at only $49 there. Everywhere else it's about $80 or more - so thanks for helping me out there.

I got the Golden Dragons. Its my most expensive toy to date... More coming...
Still contemplating on the F-14 after seeing so many issues with the quality.

I own the of BBI's "Red Devils" F/A-18s. I really love it, it's an amazing model. The only thing I would like to change is the armament. I'd love to have some custom bombs and missiles, just like these that I saw in another thread here. They look so cool mounted on the Hornet.
BBI's F-16 is my most expensive model. I got it earlier this year. Altough the price almost killed me, I am very happy with this model and I really don't regret buying it.

Great to see the old posts about the F-18/F-16.
I got into late in the game myself,about three years ago now.
But you could still pick up the Golden Dragons,and F-16 "Wolfpack" for around $150.Maybe a bit less.
One of my better deals was a F-16 from SmallJoes for $89.
Great deal,even at the time.
Seems like even used ones are going for $250+ these days.And that is without box.

I wonder if BBI will ever release their "Enduring Freedom" F-16 repaint. I'm curious about the "Thunderbirds"-scheme as well...
It's kinda sad... to see another great manufacturer disappear silently...
