Heck, if it were $50 I would still get it, but would love to see it released at the $25-30 range.
This thing is
huge
man, not even a small fighter like the F-16 would be sold at that price in that scale(actually Target sold one for $59.99 last year). For a better comparison, as big as that plane, and BBI's 1/18 scale F/A-18C Hornet is, the Tomcat makes those two look
small
. I don't even think this thing could fit on the FLAGG without getting in the way of the tower and other parts, or falling off the edge. If this were available domestically I think the cheapest price that this toy could be sold at is $150 optimistically and even then I really think it would
at least
be $200.
I want to know more things about it, like whether the landing gear is retractable or swappable, if it comes with 1/18 scale pilot figures, what other weapons it will come with, and more. I am completely shocked that this toy was announced, and at that, by a new company to the 1/18 scale military toy world. The company has made toys for other genres before, but for a first entry into the 1/18 scale military toy genre, this is a bold first step.
