The processed plastic one was made by American Plastic Toys, they made a series of planes, B2, F35, F15... The plastic is the same used in those big plastic megabloks for kids. Very shinny, flexible but strong at same time. It's very hard work on it for custom purposes. I have a B2 which I painted black mate and it is very easy to get paint chips. Paint doesn't bound so well as with ABS plastic.

Thanks very much for your replies everyone. Some ideas there. I would like to find one that will take a figure in the cockpit too. I am surprised no company is making an F35 since they are now coming into service in a lot of fleets.

unfortunately no company seems interested in making any 1/18th scale vehicles any more :(
Hasbro has scaled way back with theirs

Jazwares is doing them but based on Fortnite and halo franchises.

I went on the Jazwares site and couldn’t see them. Does anyone have a link?

When I said its "doing them" I meant vehicles in 1:18 scale. Not F35 jets.

If I can't buy brand new Hasbro fighter jets, I'd consider straying and seeking out whatever I can find. Never heard of Chap Mei. Do these makers adhere to basic toy safety standards like not being toxic, etc?

No idea but considering they are widely sold in US and Europe I'm sure they have to comply.

Keep in mind the F35 is basically a smaller (less capable) version of the F22, so finding an undersized 22 is not a bad thing.
