Small Scale Military Headquarters

Does anyone have this model? After passing them up for months at WM I picked up the F-4, F-16 and the F-18. The Viper and Phantom are sweet even though I would have liked to see at least two missles on the F-4. They come with a small plastic stand are are a great deal for under $4.

Anyhow, the Super Hornet's wings seem sort of droopy. From what I know about the Super Hornet I don't think the wings are supposed to have that much Dihedral. Does anyone else have this problem? I don't want to attempt to "fix" them and wind up breaking it.

If the wings on your F-18 are anything like those on my F-16, then yes, the dihedral is wrong and not accurate to the real plane. Remember, however, that these are toys Much, much moreso than Corgi's premium offerings. Still, they are pretty nice little planes

I agree, I don't expect perfect realism for a $3.88 toy and other than that it is great, especially the VFA-14 scheme. The Viper and the Phantom are really exceptional.

BTW, as I was reaching for the F-18 just now it fell off my desk and the stand broke.
