December BBI F4 release

[ketelone]

Anybody heard anything new? It's been too quiet.

[rjvilla82]

bbi said that it will be available after Christmas

[DocTodd]

Is there a third release coming out? Are we still speaking about the S2 version?

[rjvilla82]

just checked badcat and it says the bbi phantom is "enroute" looks like i'm getting it soon...

[AMERICAN_GRENADIER]

will have mine on friday

[snake]

I do hope this will be a successful release, given what the JR go for these days.

Again, not my choice of squadrons, but the only new 1/32 Phantom available.

Did anyone get their new BBI F-4 yet?

[big_mike]

Not yet mine apparently just shipped out today.

Picked mine up at Aikens this morning...Just finished assembling it...
Super nice, just like the previous Jolly Rogers...Beautiful display beside the JR version & my three 4D F14 versions...

[jlspec]

Got my shipping notice today, should be here next Tuesday

Picked one of these up from my local Hobbytown USA store yesterday. I've not opened it yet - and may not - but wanted to get one after seeing the excellent pictures of the product on TheFlyingMule's website... I do like the S1 VF-84 version better, but this actually looks better than expected.

Does it come with pilot figures ? The Flyingmule pictures don't show any figures.

thanks

[rjvilla82]

@cnq it comes with 2 figures.

Glad you did that Corey!

I can't say that the new F-4 will ever replace my S1 version, which has been one of my favorite models is any scale since I got it several years back, but I do like to have things in pairs and the BBI F-4 is simply one of the best aircraft toolings out there.

[USCGMK2]

Gotta pick mine up tomorrow, missed the mail lady today. I'll post up some pics.

[big_mike]

Got mine yesterday. I don't have the S1 version so I can't compare it to its predecessor. That being said I am very impressed and pleased with my purchase. I think its one of the nicer models in my collection and one I've wanted to add for some time now.

[The_Helicopter_Pilot]

I should be ordering mine Monday, I can't wait!
Always wanted one in my collection!
First, witch ones better?
I want to get the RIGHT one.

[jlspec]

Mine did arrive on Tuesday. Have not assembled it yet but did open th box to inspect it. I really like the new packaging and the plane itself was extremely well done. I like the S1 Jolly rogers scheme better but the finish and quality on the S2 is every bit as good.

[The_Helicopter_Pilot]

Ordered mine on Wednesday, how long is it going to take?!?!
I know it hasn't been long enuf for it to arrive here, but I contacted the flyingmule about a tracking number Wednesday when I bought it, they said I should have it shortly, but I haven't heard nothing back yet, does it take a few days to get a tracking number from them??

[The_Helicopter_Pilot]

Well... I'm expecting the F-4 today, I got to say, the wait is overwhelming!!!
This is something I wanted in my collection for longer then the S1 was even thought of, with the 1/32 F-4 model kits, and then this is a dream come true with a pre-build!
I just hope they're not a day late, or worse!

[ketelone]

I saw the BBI F4 personally yesterday. I didn't pick it up even though the asking price was $95. I was tempted but I can't say was overwhelmed. I'll have the opportunity to pick it up in about 2 weeks. I'll have to think about it. I have the first offering which I think is a better or cooler version.
