Does anyone know if the JSI models will be online-only or also available at ToysRUs, etc.?

Maybe (and that's a huge maybe) the 21st rehashes will be in TrU.
No way the big birds get there.

I was afraid of that--if I remember correctly, the F-4 Phantom II, SBD Dauntless and F4F Wildcat sold online-only---and Merit distributes some, if not all, of these BBI models.

It's unlikley that TRU will see any of the JSI stuff. I'd be really surprised if they do make it their.

I expect JSI will follow DiD's example and sell wholesale to online hobby retailers like Monkey Depot. It's doubtful JSI will risk following 21C's failed business model and get into bed with big box retailers. JSI will probably focus on what they do best and thats produce a quality enthusiast model.
