If I were to get one, I'd probably sell my F-16 or F-18 to offset the cost. However, it doesn't appear likely for now.

I would only get one..Since i don't have that much room anymore..Jolly Roger scheme would be a money maker for sure.

One of each paint scheme, please.
One hundred and fifty three - 1:18 scale aircraft on the ceiling looks :shock: damn good!

One (ideally low vis). Will probably wait and watch until a deal comes up.

One maybe two, I always get the first issue of any item but I may get another if a scheme comes out I really like such as a high visibility item.

I will easily buy 2 if it's the VF-84 and VF-103 scheme. All the money saved from buying WWII planes should cover it.
Kind of iffy if I'm going to buy the first release if it's not the schemes I mentioned above.

It depends. At least one, obviously. I'd like an early and a late Tomcat -- the later one from OEF. But if there's an F-15 coming up behind, I might run out of room, and I've got a pretty big space for my toys ...

Perhaps we should wait until it's available and listed price point before we decide how many we are gonna buy.

Well, if it is produced I would get at least one.

Oh boy, I hope I don't kill the project or production run........ I only collect WWII ETO.
I must say that this 1:18th F-14 does look Fantastic.

I ,for one, plan on throwing ridiculous amounts of money JSI's way. I would absolutely have to have a minimum of 3 f-14's to go along with the 3 f-18's I already have. Oh boy, oh boy. I can't wait!

I would buy one for sure and perhaps a second. Due to cost and size no. 2 would be a tough one to justify.
Does this thing have a firm release date? Has anyone even seen a mock up? I hate to be the naysayer but just because a company announces a planned piece and some e-tailers have a note up on their site does not guarantee a plane in my manclave.

I know Jason from Admiral has seen the prototype in person but has been mum about it. His comments about the jet were positive though.

I'd go for one of them in Jolly Rogers livery.
Definitely.
