I really would not want the F4 anyways. Too big and way too many better planes out there to build. The F-117 is tied for 1st place in my book with the A-10. Now if someone wanted to build a Spectre Gunship with the non-armed side being removable like a playset, I'd take that over anything.
It's just fun to tease the natives. |

It's just fun to tease the natives. The F-4 is the next behind the F-14. I grew up near St. Louis airport where the Fighter Wing was for these and LOVED seeing them all the time. |

I think I just wet myself think about all the fun you could have with the AC-130. Have the skin pop off the side to reveal aluminum bulkheads (because she'd weigh a ton) and have insainly detailed consoles and guns for the weapons officers to man. Yeah, it's the only 1/18 vehicle I'd ever need. FLAGG who?

I don't even want to contemplate the logistics of manufacturing and pricing on an 1:18 AC-130.

The company that made that F-14 is HPH. I believe that there website is hph.cze. They had stopped making 1:18 scale stuff from what I hear. They are now focused on actual 1:1 scale planes and gliders. It is a shame as they made some very nice 1:18 scale planes and jets. That particular F-14 was sold at a toy show in Saudi Arabia for $12,000-$14000. Most of their stuff sales for $8,000 or more. I really just hope to see the Kawai Toys version in any scheme at this point.

After looking it up, the F-18 has a length of 56' and wingspan of 37' while the Mitchell is 53' long and a wingspan of 67'.
Wow, that is a huge wingspan! |
