F-104C Starfighter -S1 - Does this come with a ladder?

I saw a pic of a plane in the box and silver ladder packed in next to the wing. Is this a new feature? I didn't get a ladder with my plane...

No ladders, just like no articulated air brakes.

Upper left corner of the box has what appears to be a ladder to climb up into the cockpit -

Mine did not have this.

Ah ha! I see. This is news to me.

Seems as if 21st should perhaps have one of these floating around in their parts box since they're still making the F-104.

There is a ladder in the box with my German Version of this plane.

I emailed 21st Century Toys' customer service to see if I could get a ladder.

Guess we'll have to wait and see...

Really? I didn't get a ladder with mine. Let me go look at the one still in the box.

That is NOT a ladder, it is the rail that the AIM-9 missiles attach to.

Okay, I see what you're talking about. In my German F-104's box, that's the missle rail for the sidewinders.

JOC, where in the box did they put your F-104's ladder?

You guys are right

that is the sidewinder missle rail.
I just got new glasses

21st response:
Sorry about the trouble, when and where was it purchased and what is the bar code number on the bottom of the box?

Must be a standard response... or maybe there is a ladder and ALL of us didn't get one!!

Hilarious! Now ask that you want a replacement prop for your F-104!!

I got one of those last week!
I am going to ask if I can get the optional ski (pun intended) pack landing gear.
