Cool! Looks a lot like the Dassault Rafale. Any chance you could post some pics when you get it?

Looks pretty good, planenutsfrog, but what scale is it? And does it come with optional gear, or just on the stand?

Thanks,

I've seen them on eBay in 1/48th and 1/72 scale. Since they're Gaincorp, they're likely gear down only.

OK, yes, now I've seen one on e-bay in 1/48. It is gear down and looks pretty good, but the seller is in China, and postage is hefty. Not sure I want to get it just yet...

But the J-10 is something I'll want in my collection for sure at some point. A perfect symbol of growing Chinese airpower. Plus it looks way cooler than the FC-1.

So sorry Skidmarks, I still haven't a numeric camera...

As for the model, I confirm the ldg gear is permanently down, the only option is the metal stand.

My parcel arrived last friday.

I am very satisfied with this model as well made and finished as the excellent 1/48 FC-1 : Gaincorp at its best !
(Only noticeable mistake, the bombs are painted light gray instead of olive drab)

It is not bigger than a 1/72 Flanker, but it is their most massive and heavy model to date.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm pretty sure I'll get one (but those shipping costs from China...).

Salut!

I would love to see a photo review of that 1/48 FC-1, planenutsfrog? Whenever it's convenient for you, of course.

OMI carries the FC-1. I wonder if it will get the J-10 in stock??? Anyone know if a U.S. retailer has it?? I would love more information on this model.
