That is the Swiss one in 1/48, but I only found 1 dealer which has this plane listed

This one asn't been released yet. No date yet but the price should be around 149.00FR.

Do you mean
Armour F/A-18 Hornet USN "Marauders Show Bird"?

Check out Aviation Center Australia
They have both listed.And maybe the shipping from Australia to Singapore is not that expensive

I'll have to check with my local dealer here.I saw one left the last time i visit my local dealer a week ago.I reckon its not that expensive shipping from Australia to Singapore. I'll have to check with them.
Aren't FM and Armour the same. Sorry i'm new to 1/48 scale so i'm not sure about those two ( most of my models are 1/72 ).Price is about the same est USD136 with the older models going at 50%off.
The only models that cost a bomb are from Century Wings about USD 91 compared to USD 59.90 in US which is a real bargain to me !! Don't know why most of the collectors are whining and complaining about the price in US.

Thnx for the invaluable info
Rgds + Cheers

You are right,
CDC Armour was once a company from Italy which The Franklin Mint bought several years ago.
Thus you will find some dealers listing both item numbers, the old ones from CDC and also the new F/M numbers for the older models

The new ones have only the FM number like B11B225
