FM should have shown their respect to the collector by at least writing the billboard text on the fuse in Chinese, and not those "dead mosquitoes" blasted on the side of the model.

LoL - I thought for a second that you said that the chinese writing on the side SAID "Dead Mosquitoes".

Re: What Franklin's Mig should have looked like.

I like the Franklin Mint MiG-15 and 17 line (I have one of each), but they messed up one critical detail. Both models sit with the tail distinctly higher then the nose of the aircraft. The actual MiG-15 and MiG-17 sit on deck with a stance where the tail is lower than the nose, giving them their classic look. I wonder if the Franklin Mint will follow up with a MiG-19?.....
