How many kids will be upset that the wheels don't roll? What about the kids int heir driveways that want to enact a plane taking off, but can't because the frickin wheels don't roll?
How many parents who buy this for little jimmy are going to be apologetic to them because the wheels don't roll?
There is none, zip, zero excuse for such a pathetic cost cutting effort like this. I know planes fly, but they also land, drive to the runway and take back off.
So which is it Hasbro? Aimed at kids that want "play" value or collectors who just sit things on shelves? Cause you can't have it both ways, cheapskates.
It's not a contradiction, it's different points of view. The first para was about what I think kids will think of the gun-handle. The other was about what I think about the wheels, not what I think kids will think of the wheels.
To be that picky about it, I think kids won't care because it'll be flying around the room, not sitting on the tarmac. Just like when I was a kid with my Skystriker. I just picked it up and flew it. Then again, I didn't have a driveway (or USS Flagg) I could take off from. :(
