WOW!!!!!!!!

Note to self...set aside money for new plane(s)....

I cannot wait. This is a must have for me. :D :D

If the old molds are being used, then this Mustang may not be too far out?

I will keep my fingers crossed for the B-25

This is all great news

This will be a limited production run and thus a very expensive model.
That is what I was afraid of. :(
Looks like these will be geared for the adult collector, than those that leave them in boxes and don't enjoy them.

I for one am excited at the news!

This is awesome news on a new P-51. Not fond of the scheme since I like silver Mustangs, not OD, but to each his own.

My only question is:

Is that Mustang shown a 1/48 or 1/32 paint master or is that really 1/18? The landing gears look too perfect for 1/18 which makes me infer it's a smaller scale.

If it is 1/18 are they retractable or plug N play like BBI's Phantom. I hope it's plug and play. You can easily get more realism from the model.

IMHO retractable gears are overated. Interesting they are choosing one of the earlier P-51D's which didn't have the extra material on the leading edge of the vertical tail like most "D" models have.

TKO, can ya enlighten us on these questions?

Thanks

Anything that is a truly limited production item, regardless of what it is, is goiing to come with a heftier price. All of these type items as we know, come with a minimum order figure from the manufacturer. I'm sure AG Toys will order the absolute minimum of all their releases in the beginning. I think we all need to just accept the fact that they will probably be fairly expensive instead of moaning and groaning about price point. I know that not every will but there will be plenty that will. Regardless of the price, this reminds me of the old depression era song.

I don't mind the model being more expensive if quality control goes up as well.

BAKER707:

I got my BBI P-51 "Old Crow" with a similar olive drab paint scheme a few months ago for under $50. So I'll pass on the "Passion Wagon".

It surely does look nice, and the price isn't that high. If they don't mess around with the landing gear or weathering, this one might be a big seller.
We still need more new 1/18 aircraft!

Now if I could only get a decent poster-sized copy of Vargas' "Trick or Treat" onto my man-room wall :twisted:
Take a look on google.
I found several places offering that poster for sale.

It's a shame Small Joes got the info wrong on the Pilot...

Chuck Weaver flew another P-51 with the same code.

Great news. As long as the product is sold by etailers, we are assured of getting what we want. No running from store to store hoping for an item to be in stock.

I would like to have verified whether the production is to be "limited". At $100 for the Stang doesn't tell me that is a "limited" production item.

At anything lower than $150 for the KT, I'm in for multiple buys if the KT is "limited".

Did I hear T-34? or was that just wistful thinking. I know a B-25 in 1/18 would be dreaming for a new company. Maybe 1/32? :roll:

Great news TKO..... :D

Wow, SmallJoes already! Thanks for the link.

I'm curious who else may get it ... in particular I'm hoping BadCat (I live a couple of villages to the north of them, so shipping costs and time has always been immediate).

But at the same time, I'll want to preorder this weekend.

$100 for a Mustang repaint? :shock:

Limited or not, I'll pass. Hopefully people with deeper pockets will be able to support All-Go, but if this is any indication of their pricing, I'm out. Still interested in seeing what else they release.
