The factory knows exactly just how many it make and we're told that this will be the one and only run for the Jolly Rogers scheme.
This can be interpreted in so many ways. For example, maybe it's the only run for that
specific Jolly Rogers scheme. The Jolly Rogers used a bunch of paint schemes, the one in
Final Countdown is significantly different from the one we've seen in the latest JSI images.
Also if JSI makes an F-14B(which isn't hard to do, considering their current mold is a late model F-14A, and once the engine nozzles for the F110-GE400 are put on, most of the work is pretty much done), does anyone honestly think they will pass up the opportunity to make a VF-103 Jolly Rogers bird? I highly doubt it. Not to mention, there are several VF-103 Jolly Rogers schemes to choose from.
Shin's wishlist for 1/18 and 1/32 with retractable landing gear and more:
F-14 Tomcat, F-8 Crusader, A-4 Skyhawk, F-105 Thunderchief, A-6 Intruder, F-15C, F-15E Strike Eagle
