Guys, I did the review, and thanks to those who commented. I'm not sure just yet what rating I would give this plane, I haven't done a "out of 10" review in a while. It's definitely not a 5/10, definitely not 9/10, or 10/10. It's not horrible, and not perfect, but definitely worth purchasing if you want a v1 Conquest and don't have one. If you have previous Conquests and don't favor the original colors as much, you don't need this one. Definitely one of the best vehicles in the anniversary line for sure. The older Conquests have better stability, and while I do miss the tension that held the vertical stabilizers in place on the old ones, the securing tabs and slots on this new one are good to have. Just add the tension from the old ones, and it would have been great. The main thing going for this is that it has not been seen in this scheme for nearly 20 years.
Out of all the Conquests, this one took the hit for quality but by all means it's not a bad toy at all. It's just not the
best Conquest
,
quality wise
, that's all. It's a rugged toy, your kids aren't likely to break it, but they might lose the missles/drop tanks. The landing gears do stay retracted when folded up, and I heard this was a problem with the original, but the 98 version and this one do not have that problem.
There is a new ad for this in the latest Toyfare magazine and it is awesome.
