Good news AG.
Lots of members eagerly awaiting these September releases.
Can you tell us how the pre orders for the F-111 were? Probably the most anticipated release of the year.

Great news on the "Vark", as everyone has noted, this one is a must have.

Anybody have any info on the the HM VF-31 "Tomcatters" F-4J...?? Aikens has it listed as a Sept. 2010 release, but it's still in "pre-order" status.

Flyingmule has the Tomcatters Phantom in stock. I preordered mine from another dealer and called my dealer on Friday and it's hasn't arrived yet, but they will have a lower price.

That bird's beak looks a bit blunted; more like an F2H Demon. Still a good looking model though.

I noticed the blunted F-4 nose since I got my Ritchie F-4 two years ago---I think you're only the second person to comment on it.

I've noticed that tendency on a fair number of types from different diecast makers, for example it's especially noticeable on the Corgi F-4. With regard to the HM EF-111 however, the pitot tube on the end of the nose looks a bit "fat", but otherwise the shape of the nose itself looks pretty much spot on to me.
