With so many here waiting in anticipation for the F-4 phantom release this year.
How many of you are setting specific amount of space for one or three?


I my self have plans on getting several of these big birds at lest one of every paint scheme, even if it means I have to buy extra shelving. :D

I did have some space reserved for the F-4, but I figured it will be a while till we see one so that space is now full. But, if I knew for sure an F-4 was around the corner, the space would back for one.

The motorpool still has it for a September release if that is still true.

Do you think those picture Motorpool is showing are the actual model? That thing is beautiful.

I bet they are probably a 1:32 scale paint master.

I don't have a specific space but do have a mallet and big shoehorn ready to go. There is always room for just one more...

My ultimate F-4 wish is that BBI would release a 1/32 Steve Ritchie F-4D---it would be smaller and less costly.

But I doubt that wish will come true. If 21st Century is the only Ritchie F-4D available, I'll find the room and budget for it.

my garage is extended out form my house.(rather than under the second floor) i just removed some of the ceiling so i can throw other cruft taking up space in my house (since my attic is way full) i will find space in my living quarers for MANY new aircraft.

"my my there sure is an awful lot of unused ceiling space downstaris...honey"

I'll definitely be making room for this one. Luckily, it looks like I have time to complete the addition on the house before its release, unelss AT decides to launch theirs after all.

I've put aside the correct amount of virtual space right next to my virtual A-10 :wink:

I think only lightning2000 can shed light on this one.
