This is a must and should be fairly inexpensive in terms of other 1:18 scale product. It would sell out instantly as well:

Sacrilege! The 104 is an amazing model. And was a sales success to boot.Ta-152 wrote:I agree in full. They should have done it instead of putzing around with the F-104.

I'd be in for a couple. Then again, I'm a little biased. My wife's cousin actually owns a 47G and flies it.

Life is NOT a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in other, body thoroughly worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO” what a ride!
Yeah, this would be on my "must have multiples of" list if produced in 1/18th scale. I think it would be a hot seller in the larger market as well.
I don't think it would be less expensive to produce though as the open tubular frame means that they'd have to mold all the intricate engine details etc. Ideally I'd want the 1/18 frame to be metal since it would be so fragile in plastic that sales of superglue and tiny steel pins would skyrocket due to repairs.

That right there was what i was thinking, unless it was done using the softer plastic Bbi used for helo tails and skids.
Though with that route you run into the potential for the tail assembly to warp, similar to the baskets on the Abrams.
