Thumbs up HA1030 F-104G Starfighter (Dutch) International Exclusive

Well broke down and ordered one of these, to go with my other Dutch Air Force models. ( Witty Sea Furry, Spitfire, and Corgi Meteor) I only have one other F-104 but from the pics I've seen on the forum this has to be the nicest on yet, subtle weathering and the panel lines are not jumping out at you. Here's some pics.(not even close to Mhackl pieces of art but will do)

Unfortunately not , just has Diecast International Exclusive on the box cover. Hobby Master is still behind here by not including certificates in exclusive run schemes, would add more to the collectiblity. I know if I owned a large die-cast store/hobby shop and could pull off an exclusive it would have to be part of the package making it exclusive. Only makes sense.

Thanks for the info.. Maybe HM will release their mistake on their future releases. It can't cost that much to put in a numbered card inside...

Unfortunately it costs more than you think and if this was added on to the retail cost it wouldn't be well received.

When it comes to making exclusives Hobby Master only makes and adds what the customer orders. If the customer wanted to pay the extra then it would be there.

Very nice model nonetheless. I reckon you ultimately know that it is exclusive even without the limited edition numbers.

1,000 and Diecats International sells them for $42.50US each plus shipping. Way too steep for an exclusive with no "extras". Plus, who is to tell that Witty won't make Dutch F-104 as a regular release?
