JSI A-10 Thread

This thread was made so that the Phantom thread wouldn't be further derailed. So for those of you who want a 1/18 A-10 by JSI, post the paint schemes, variants, et al, that you'd like to see here. Pictures would be great too.

I might be in the minority but I like the A-10B. Pretty bad ass variant, shame it never went into full production.

If JSI tackles the A-10 Warthog, they have to release both the current gray over gray scheme and lizard camoflauge of the 23rd TFW 'Flying Tigers'. They would both be the top sellers.

Agreed. For me, a shark/warthog mouth is a must. It lends itself well to the brutish look of the Warthog.

Very nice! :shock:

I wouldn't mind it but it probably will not be the #1 overall choice. I myself could take it just flat black. :D

It may not be the #1 overall choice, but it is a cool looking paint scheme. It was worn in commeration of D-Day's 50th Anniversary by the 45th TFS flying out of Grissom AFB, IN at the time.

Definitely the Grey and the Lizard schemes

I'd jump on each of those for sure, but heck, I'd probably buy 1 of each they released, just because it was an A-10. I have no idea where I'd put/store them, but dang that would be sweet.

Gray would be my first choice.

Everytime I see one I want it all the more. that D-Day Anniversary model is sweet but I'd have to go with a Shark-Mouth Scheme first.

I prefer the warthog-esque mouth over the sharkmouth, gives the Hog more personality and makes it stand out against shark mouthed USAF birds. Great choices stug45

That would be cool, but it would never happen. I see them doing the Flying Tigers one first.

Maybe JSI and a retailer could work out an ANG type package like Bad Cat did with bbi's F-16.

That would give the many options of A-10 ANG units... :D
