Corgi doesn't make 1/18 scale A/C yet, the one shown at the Toyshow was a limited edition not yet in production.. Now, Corgi does sell XD 21st Century planes, but only as a retailer for the UK market.

There is a few planes in the Corgi Box that are 21C toys. They were release in the UK I believe.

I don't have one, but I can provide you with this dandy picture of a pile of them, which I took at the RAF museum in Colindale (just north of London), England. This was in March of 2005, and they were discounted to £ 29.99 - or about $60. Given that they were planes then readily avaliable in the US for much cheaper and that it would be pretty hard to carry a giant box both on the underground (subway) and on a plane, I didn't get one :wink:

However, good luck in finding some - you may want to try the UK ebay site, and look for a seller that ships world wide. :D
