Don't lose hope, west coast. I actually found an S2 FW190A at the wal mart in Anaheim. It was the only one, but it shows they may eventually get over here. I even saw a sharkmouth P-51 at a TRU, so maybe there's a chance more will show up...

Within the past week, the "Red 19" FW-190As have finally begun to show up in my area. As of today, two Wal Marts in my area have them. Its a bit after the fact for me as I got one online a couple months ago, but at least the distribution thing is working... Just it is pathetically slow and goes to rot in all the worthless areas of the country first :P

Came across a red 19 today, and was kinda disappointed, It had a nice paint job, but didn't have the proper cowl gun bulges or a bubble hood (like the pics show). Whats the deal there?

Noticed that as well, but it was a very small flaw for me. Probably the result of 21c production standardization.

Wouldn't really bother me either, but those things are what makes an A-8 and A-8. Oh well.

Just picked up Red 19 at Walmart today.
It was sitiing right next to a P-51D RAF Sharkmouth.
The Yellow 11's have cleared out and some Mrs. Bonnies still remain.

The Red 19 is a very cool paint scheme.
I highly recommend getting one.
Even the landing gear stays up!

The only paint scheme cooler than that is hworth18's custom Willi Maximowitz:

Agreed. The perfect way to cap off my 32X Collection.
