Hobby Master Turns Up the Diecast Heat 
Fresh after shipping out a plethora of new vehicles and aircraft comes word that Hobby Master will be offering a bunch of new SKU's in the second quarter. Besides the usual mix of repaints, the company plans on offering a 1:72 scale M45 Pershing, which was equipped with a 105mm howitzer. On the aviation front, look forward to seeing their first ever North American F-100D Super Sabre, a more powerful and larger version of the original F-86 Sabre. We're currently in the process of adding all the new weaponry to our site and should have the entire stockpile posted by tonight....[posted 3/19/2008]

Cool, however, an F-100 in 1:72 scale is not entirely new. Matchbox collectables made one (with two paintschemes) several years ago. It is not completely diecast, and does not have the optional landing gear, but otherwise looks awesome

True enough, but if you reread the post it says "their first ever" F-100. I didnt say it was the first on the block.
