Really like the H.M.S. BOUNTY since it comes with landing gear. I think I may pick that one up.

The Bounty would be the BOP I want too for the same reason. Looks a lighter color in the pics.
Not due out till next year though.

The transparent green one looks hokie. Pass on that but most likely will get the Excelsior.

i have the first release BOP, the one with Chang's voice and it's great. No landing gear but i don't care as i like my stuff in flight (plus i think the BOP looks goofy on its landing gear). For those who are getting the new one with landing gear be warned, it probably won't be removable, so there will be no option to display it in flight.

Regardless of choice, i suspect all of these will appreciate quickly in value over the years ahead. Great toy.

Production is not final on this item, however at this time we are planning to make the landing gear removable.  Thank you for your interest in our products.

interesting......everyone who just bought the Chang one is going to be miffed. It will also kill future Chang sales i'd wager. Odd decision.
