I've known about this for a while, I can't believe I didn't post it earlier.

Looks fantastic, but I still don't get why 21C isn't marketing more modern stuff. Who's their target market for this, the MiG-15/17, 21, the F-86, 104? I know there's a significant WWII and modern market, but for the Korea and Vietnam eras? If it makes it to Walmart's shelves, I see it ultimately being clearanced, then I'll pick one up, just because I have a soft spot for the F-4 from when I was a kid. But I doubt Walmart will get them, because the last 5 or more 21C planes warmed shelves.

Well the phantom is the first large aircraft they are putting out. Modern aircraft in 1:18 scale would be huge. I have several of the 1:18 aircraft released so far, and most are in boxes because I don't have ceiling/shelf space for them. The price isn't too bad as it's only a bit more than what the ww2 birds go for online. Heck I paid $75 for a special edition P-38 at an airshow. I do wonder if it comes with all the little items, like remove before flight tags. Or if that was just for the prototype.
If walmart got this it would probably sell for $65-70. I think I would pick one up, then try and get it autographed by Ritchie. Though target was the last place to carry any 21st stuff. |
