I just got an e-mail alert from the Mule. Anyone know anything about the 1:32 Jolly Roger Phantom due out in December '07? Two-feet long !!! But it is a Phantom and I may not be able to resist. What is the quality of BBI?

Badcat has pre-pro pics and it looks really good, although it is pretty pricey.. BBI's stuff is really good quality and detailed..

It's going to take a lot of self-control for me to NOT order this one -- looks pretty darn cool...

Tank Nut sent me some pictures of this. It does look good.

I do like the looks of this F4 Phantom it's better than not having one at all.
But still the price for a 1:32 is a little high i think....
But on the other hand a price for a 1:18 Phantom from 21st was to be about 89.00
i was told...But i bet the 1:18 will go a little more then that if they make it.

The price doesn't really bother me that much (read: no signifcant other). I'd just spend the money on my car stereo addiction or something equally as useless -- say food or house payment.

The only thing that could make this better if it was made of metal. Hmmmm. Two-feet of zinc alloy...my display shelves are sagging just thinking about the possibility.

BBI is significantly better than 21st Century, from the one or two models that I've seen side by side. I find it interesting that 21st Century announced their Phantoms first, but BBI will apparently beat them to market...

I'll wait for pics of the final thing---I have seen BBI do some amazingly stupid stuff with jets that puts Witty and Dragon errors to shame. But they have also done some really good stuff. Again--I'll wait to see the final product.

Here it is !!!!

Nosegear strut's on backwards. Nosegear door is USAF style. Rest looks OK from what I can see.
