It is looking very good.

I have had mine on pre order for a couple of months.

Nice weapons load also.

It will look great in SEA camo scheme as well.

Hobby Master USAF A-1 Skyraider (I think this model represents the USAF pilot who received the Medal of Honor during a rescue mission over North Vietnam).
I've preordered the Navy and USAF Skyraiders.

it doesn't look quite right. I can't quite put my finger on it..


edit: i know what it is, it doesn't have goofy purple and grey spots all over it, that's what's wrong with it.


:wink:
i never met an airplane i didn't like...

Wish they stuck to the original load-out,rockets and and 2x bombs is kind of boring,but beggars can't be choosers and as always HM makes look great.

SLRFAN:

After I posted original photos of the Hobby Master Skyraider prototype showing the original payload and after HM announced a different payload, one of the posters on another message board sent info to HM saying the first payload was correct. I asked the poster several weeks ago if he got a reply from HM. He said no.
