I'm still new so I'm happy about this. I love the JR squadron and i'll pretty much buy anything in that colour scheme. Any idea on price? roughly how long is 1/144th scale? Thanks.

Can only guess it will not be inexpensive. I would guess that 1/144 is half the size of 1/72. CC will give us dimensions to the millimeter.

Length is obviously one-half of 1/72, but volume-wise, they're only 1/8 as big.

With fuselage length of 62 ft 9 in, model should have a length of 5.23 inches (13.282 centimeters) in 1/144 scale.(Yep close to half that of 1/72nd scale)

I would humbly suggest they will still not be cheap because regardless of the smaller amount of metal the same amount of labour and effort is required to assemble and paint as it's larger brother....

so that's like $45- $46 USD roughly, not so bad compared to Herpa's prices for 1/200. I hope they plan on painting the deck.

They're up on the site now. CENTURY WINGS　【VF84 AJ200 1978】

Can't imagine some of these won't be sold here.

What is this Topgun site they are talking about?

Top Gun is Yoshi's shop in Japan. TOPGUN�@ƒ_ƒCƒLƒƒƒXƒgƒ‚ƒfƒ‹�ê–å“X ƒgƒbƒvƒKƒ“
And if anyone is wondering about the blast doors on the packaging diorama of the 1/144, It doesn't look like they are going to change it.

So i guess 1/200 scale has gone out the window?!
