Re: I got my VA-82 A-7!! What a beauty!!

That is one cool low viz scheme! I wonder when we'll being low vis from CW.

That low vis scheme would be a nice one to do. Still Maybe someday CW will do a USAF/ANG scheme. That A-4 needs a pilot. I might try the pilot out of my Mig21 for the A-4.

Re: I got my VA-82 A-7!! What a beauty!!

The salesperson is right. I just got the two A-7. I was surprised to see both available at the same time. btw, are those sidewinder missiles coz the fins look different from those of F-14s.

Where did you buy them?

Re: I got my VA-82 A-7!! What a beauty!!

Hey Andrew What can you tell me about the Flight helmet in the background? Who makes it? Is this the Blue Box Int? Thanx LM

That's what it looks like. I have several of them for my 1/6 pilots.

I got them from a local distributor of CW products here in Singapore. They still have the VF-84 and VF-41 F-14A available but I am not sure if they ship overseas.

Re: I got my VA-82 A-7!! What a beauty!!

They used to make one of Maverick's helmet from Top Gun, and I never had the chance to get it.
 

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 know a dealer who still stock those BBI jet helmets? Send me a 'pm' if you're still interested in picking some up.

Yes, company from Hong Kong called "Hot Toys" made a limited run of Mav's VF-1 helmet. Happen to have one that's custom made pilot figure.
