Not cheap, but when you consider they are hand-cast and hand-painted in the US by Skyworks, the price, perhaps, isn't too outrageous. I'm tempted to order a couple as they look pretty good.

I've got a set of pilots for both my Jolly Roger and Knights 14's and they are spot on. Maybe to some its more than say a 21st or BBI pilot would cost, but there is no comparison.
The Pilots from SkyWorks Toys, add the "finish" the plane needs to be an "eye openner."
You won't be sorry you bought them.

I hope the SSHQ member who was working on his set of F-14 pilots with his sister-in-law would update the status of his pilots.
