I can't decide if I want to pull the trigger on this one or not...It IS an A-6 afterall, but the markings do nothing for me.

Now if it was from VA-34 Blue Blasters I'd be all over it (hint, hint )

Oh the humanity!!

Jake Grafton's "Devil 505" for me.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

I must have been really tired last night. I said HM A-6 when I meant HM A-10 - The Brentwaters one.

Re: USN VA-35 Black Panthers, AJ500, USS Nimitz, 1978 is now in stock

Here are the picture i said i take for you....I forgot to buy a new light bulb since the other one burned out again...Sorry.
Anyway i like it...... the only thing that bothered me a little was the tail hook...There is none..It's molded in the fuse..
The paint looks really sharp on this A-6 and the landing gears are a little different to put on then the F-14 that they made with the whole landing gear box all together...
This one looks alot like a Dragon landing gear set up...But it does have a tight fit and it's firm .........The other cool thing about this is the center fuel tank you can have your fuel tank on the plane while it on a stand...Yoshi did a good job for this being done in 1:72nd.
Here are the Pictures ..Enjoy.

Damn! That looks nice to me... much better than any Dragon jet I've ever seen. Look at that turbine in the intakes... BEAUTIFUL!

Thanks for the pics, JP.
