Dreaming in 1/18 Scale

Do you ever dream about your hobby? I normally don't, honest... but I have to share this with all you cause its damn funny, ....or a prediction of the future....
A few nights ago I found myself in Target slowly walking through the toy section, there was the Iron man toys and the Starwars toys and then on the top shelf was a 1/18 short nose Fw-190a!! The box was not the normal 21st Cen box, it was a square box, not to tall, the fuselage ran diagonal across the clear window side of the box with a wing on each side, one wing was turned over so you could see paint on the bottom and top. It had an all black cowling, grey and dark grey, white band, on the cowling was the white shield of JG3. The box had red, white and black on it and German writing....
the best part... $39.99 just like the old days at Wal-Mart, then I saw a Stuka, same old 21st box but it said "Dragon"
I ran to go get a cart and when I returned they were all gone
