Are you sure these are the exact model from JSI? Im a dealer and have not received a pic at all. In fact these pics look really like Century wings 1:72 scale F-14. I could Be wrong. If they are it looks really great.

How come no other dealers especially Merit or even JSI itself have these pics?

Also, I suspect that the model shown isn't entirely finalized with regards to paint. |

wolfman, i'll hopefully get answers from sam at jsi real soon to all these questions. i find it kinda strange to that merit or jsi hasn't released any pics yet, but shin may be right. sam at jsi did tell me merit international would be the first to release pics.... well, what happened with that?

this f-14 isn't one from final countdown, as the letters are on the outside of the vertical stabilizers in the movie. this paint scheme is a paint scheme that jolly rogers did use and is very similiar, but hey i like this one better anyways.
as far as custom work i plan on having jsi build and paint me a lite up 1991 flag tail version of the jolly rogers f-14, i'll post pics when i get it. custom work from jsi is quite costly however, starting from 1 grand up. the plane they are doing for me cost $1650, so its not for everyone. as far as the details if this is the finished product, i should have that answer soon. but i'm sure it is, as looking this perticular plane up it is a one tone paint scheme, no white parts, which kinda sucks if you favor that, but it has to do with the fact hphgliders has copied righted that paint scheme...selfish bastards!

Nice to "meet" all of you again guys, this is Giacomo writing from Rome, Italy. Really impressed by the pictures but I didn't see neither the pilot nor the r.i.o. of this "gattone", anyone has got details about them?
Ciao da Roma! |

they missed the E above vf-84 on the vertical stabilizers, thats kinda funny, but i like it without it better. this plane is actually from the theadore roosevelt, not the nimitz, which is a surprise with the paint scheme. you can view the actual plane at the unofficial jolly rogers history page if your like me and like to compare them.
