Re: New IXO 1:144 Scale Bomber Images

While I like these models for the rarer types offered, I'm holding off because the price point of $30-$35 is just too high for something so small that's half (or more) plastic. Considering a Corgi Legend or Warbird model is typically $15-$20, and has far higher metal content, IXO needs to get real on the pricing.

Excellent point there, no4mkit! I just don't see any "bang for your buck" with that kind of pricepoint (not enough to tempt me anyway) even if those birds will never be made by other diecast manufacturers.
