From Badcat's April 16 blog,
"...a new tooling 1:32 plastic model airplane that will be exclusive to the 'Cat in a deal finalized yesterday! We'll post pics and info in a few days.)"
Well, it's been more than a few days, it's been a few weeks and still no new tool 1/32 plastic airplane.
Do any of you "insiders" have any info as to what this new airplane will be?

I can't believe I didn't catch that one.
I don't even know what time it is all I know is I'm hungry, my back hurts and my stomach is upset from those UBER hot wings I had at 10 o clock last night.
I feel like I'm 30. =/ Heartburn, back pain, and I haven't moved in 2 hours. Although I was skateboarding before that.

30? LOL!!!!
Maybe you just have delicate bowels.
Rule #1:
When eating hot wings, make sure you have an ice cold beer on hand.
Rule #2
Don't stop eating... keep shoveling.
Rule #3
Don't eat the Blue Cheese... usually it's bad.
Rule #4 (the most important)
Wash your hands BEFORE using the bathroom!
Anyhow....
I haven't seen anything on the 'cat mentioning anything new since that April 16th post.

Did Badcat ever say who will produce this new 32nd scale model?

i very much doubt the plane is exclusive to badcat....most likely just the first paint scheme is exclusive, much like the first paint of the AT Dauntlass is exclusive to MTS.

Good point, I am sure it will be a neat paint scheme no matter what model it is.

Maybe it will be a Duke Cunningham "Showtime" repaint of BBI's 1/32 F-4J.

That would be cool, the BBI F-4J is an awesome model. I really wish they would do it the Blue Angel paint scheme as the they flew the J model F-4. That would be a great looking model.

Keep in mind Badcat's blog said, "...a new tooling 1:32 plastic model airplane that will be exclusive to the 'Cat...".
It says "new tooling 1:32 plastic airplane", not "repaint". Since Flyingmule dropped 21st Century, maybe Badcat will have a new tool 21st Century plane.
Either way, I wish Badcat would hurry up and release info on the new plane.

No room for the F4.
Saving room for the new Millennium Falcon.

Some advice to you and the other mid-thirties guys - start exercising and eating right TODAY. It's a hell of a lot easier to stay in shape when you're forty than to get in shape.
12 ounce curls?

I hear ya man, I got a treadmill I need to use.

It's been 1 month and 1 week since Badcat's blog said, "new tool 1:32 plastic model airplane...exclusive to the 'Cat...info in a few days."
I'm really curious as to what this new 1/32 plane will be...

Me too, but looks like this might be another of the "classic delays". I will believe this one when I see it.

It's been 2 months today and I'm still waiting for Badcat's "new tool 1:32 plastic model airplane...exclusive to the 'Cat...info in a few days."
Since Badcat and BBI have had exclusives (F-16 ANG, P-51 "Cripes A Mighty"), I sure hope the new 1/32 Badcat/BBI is a Steve Ritchie F-4D.
