Re: New FM F-22 Photo's

The final result is really disappointing. I expected a more realistic paint scheme.

You would expect with a "fishbowl" canopy like that more detail in the cockpit.

Re: New FM F-22 Photo's

Very disappointing. The basic mould doesn't seem too bad (though the tip of the radome is too blunt), but the paint scheme is not even close to the real thing. And they again failed to paint the inside of the cockpit black like it should be. I'll definitely pass on this one, even though I'm a huge F-22 fan.

What a let-down...

Hi FVD,

unfortunately this one looks exactly like the pre-pro I've send you pics of. As I pointed out in an earlier post this looks more like a toy than a "serious" diecast model.

It's even worse than the first release...

Re: New FM F-22 Photo's

With some exceptions like the F-104, F-86 and F-18 IŽam not a big fan of the FM modern jet models.
And this one did not convinced me the start a new collection spree

Re: New FM F-22 Photo's

Pretty much a waste of everyone's time looking at this FM crap.
