An FOV dealer said the new FOV silver 1/72 B-25 "Green Dragons" and silver B-26 Marauder will arrive very soon. The dealer has them listed at $59.99.

The B-26 Marauder is sadly lacking in 1/72.There seems to be a lot of demand for it,and I don't understand why Corgi hasn't released one yet. :(

And I agree with Panzer M.$60 for a FoV 1/72 does seem kind of on the pricey side.
I have seen some reviews of their OD B-26,and it does have some QC issues.

Still glad that somebody has released one.

When you consider that a similar-sized Corgi plane can cost $80 or more the FOV one is a bit of a bargain. I had no serious QC issues with either my S1 FOV B-25 or B-26. I paid around $50 for the B-26 and got the B-25 for free from Badcat (payment for writing a review for their blog). The FOV planes are not Corgi good, but still are quite nice and display well right alongside Corgi planes.
