GMP aircraft

I am a huge fan of the GMP's, and was just wondering what everyone's favorite GMP aircraft is. I also didn't want to let Waltz41 down as he knows I love the GMP's and can't help but talk about them.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

I think I can make a pretty good guess.

I have Old Exterminator and Cripes A Mighty at home and two more P-51's on the way (including Pete 3rd). For now, I'd have to say Cripes nudges out the Exterminator but things could change when the other two arrive.

Have to break the news about the other two planes to my wife this weekend. Got a great deal on a well known auction site but it still turned out to be a pretty penny. Wish me luck!

I have a signed Yeger P-51, signed Bud Anderson P-51, Old Exterminator, Cripes A Mighty, Petie 3rd, and have a preordered BBD. I don't know if I could choose just one. Old Crow would be up pretty high though.

Lightbulb GMP subjects

Yes the P-51's are exceptional but I am surprised no commentary on the P-40's??? I have the R.Scott 40 w/ the sharks mouth and all... PERFECT!!!
These are in my opinion THE BEST diecast aircraft models available! Those engine compartments are amazing! The level of detail puts the Corgi 32nd scale efforts to shame (although still very good).
Seriously folks, I do not normaly indulge in the 32/35th scale aircraft... BUT if you have not picked up one of the GMP fighters you are missing out. Most of my collection is 72nd. The GMP planes are amazing center points for any collection! Do yourself a service and pop for the $150+/- and get any of them.
Having the Scott P-40 already I must admit I am tempted to get the "Texas Longhorn" also... nice!

Read your mind ...well it easy when we both like P-51 Mustangs so much.
By the way when i was in Chico today they had a airshow going on and i saw the F15 Eagle buzzing the Tower....haha..that thing is so loud and wow what a show that fighter jet put on.
After it landed i talked to the pilot for a while and he said this was his last time in the F-15.
I guess there moving up to the F-22 Rapter which is a sweet jet too.
