Last I heard they were preparing it for production. Merit expects to release it sometime in September.

Something tells me we won't be hearing anything new on either FW-190A nor the AV-8B until early next year. There is an International Toy Fair scheduled in New York city on February 16-19. Merit will be there at booth #5455. I expect that's probably when we'll hear more news from them on the progress and possible release dates.

The 190 was going to be a bright star in our 1/18th world this year.
But it will be another black hole

Oh, that is nice!
I bought FW-190D just long enough to have that emotional sinking feeling and a few explicatives run through my head.
Sigh, 1/18 scale angst.
