And why would you take that beautiful, authentic, realistic likeness of Preddy and put it in a gappy, factory fresh, anorexic-landing geared, incorrectly-hinged flapped, non-riveted Mustang?

Dang Dude, that's a low blow right there!

Just recently pulled the trigger to order it, and when it arrives I'm gonna hand it over to my brother who's a superb graphic artist and painter!

Hey Joey don't forget me....I need one too.....

George Preddy was......Just the greatest fighter pilot who ever squinted through a gunsight.
He was a complete fighter pilot.......Colonel John C. Meyer Deputy Commander of the 352nd.

Sorry. I was trying to be a bit tongue-in-cheek. Guess it didn't work, huh? Skunky may get a kick out of it though.

Actually... when I earlier asked about the Preddy model, I was inquiring about the plane... not the pilot. When you responded that it was a limited Eagle Edition, I thought... "DANG! They are doing resin models now!!" So, I thought you were getting the plane, along with the pilot! But... I since checked out Eagle's web-site... I get it now, its just the resin figure. So go ahead... it will make that gappy, factory fresh, non-riveted, anorexic landing-geared, incorrectly hinged Mustang look much better.

BTW... I have GMP's "Petie", and yes, I think it is a beautiful model, despite the flaws. But I'd trade it in a heartbeat for that 1/32 model the Preddy figure is sitting on!
