TN, you REALLY don't want one, unless you just want a P-51 in 1/32 scale and don't care what it looks like.. For some reason, FOVs P-51, Spitfire and Bf-109G are just not up to par with their other stuff..

I was hoping that they may have done it better with the P-51 but I guess from what you are telling me they did it half assed again I am wondering if they will ever get it right? Does this one have titanic bolt rivits on it too like the me 109?

Yep,
And these aren't new.. They have been out for a few years now, but they are just now reappearing on store shelves in mass numbers.. on the plus side, if you were in the US and had a Target store nearby, you could pick one up for $15..

On a side note, does anyone know when the 1:32 P-39 will arrive?

I hope this will follow soon after the B-26/25 which I hear it's now available at Bad Cat Aviation's site. Of course all bets are off if the P-39 does have those 'ship-rivets' panel
then it would be all for naught!

Re: Any body on here get the new fov P-51 yet?

I think the P-51D is going to be the same mold with the Titanic rivets... I was in Target this evening and
they had the 1:32 Spitfire...Which i never liked anyway Corgi is better..But no P-39 yet.
