| Re: witty swordsmen F-14
Agree on the Witty F-15s and the "quality sequence." I have the Lakenheath F-15C and the red JASDF commemorative Eagle, and both are a cut above everything else (including Witty's other jets). Interestingly, the missiles aren't Witty's usual white -- they're gray and carry the proper striping.
I have the Witty F-16 in Edwards red/white, which has a test paint scheme and no ordnance, and therefore is a little harder to compare to the other F-16s (my overall impression is that Dragon has an edge in surface detail). Finally, I have the VFA-137 F/A-18E, and I'm not that impressed; better than the F-14, but still lacking the detail of Dragon.
On the other hand, these are very sturdy -- as Skysurfer says, portability and boxability is on par with the one-piece Gaincorps, Sunstars, etc. |
