I'll take a VF-154 scheme to go with my Tomcats.



Is Brazilions a form of currency?

I forgot the Black Knights did have J's, I was thinking they "weren't on the list" of possible F-4's from HM. I always think of them as an F-4N squadron. (I think they had N's longer, and used them up until they got their Tomcats)

I'm glad HM is doing the Phantom but I betcha CW isn't so happy right now!!! HM beat them to the punch on this one!

zed - you took my bait! haha

Dump those old Corgis boys! It's gonna be a bumpy ride! Who's Phantom will be first - HM's, CW's, or GA's?

Well Century Wings beat HM to the A-7. I'm still wondering if HM is going to make the A-7. Remember when they said they were going to make it (A-7)for 2008? Century Wings has only come out with one A-7. I'd of thought they'd have another one or two by now. Look at the Intruders. The final flight one was sold out before most of us knew it even existed. When and if Hobby Master makes the A-7 they'll at least have a better selection of liveries ie Thai, Greek, Portugal and the U.S.

Now don't go taking this the wrong way. But CW makes just a few and they are sold out before most of us know about it. HM makes great models that we atleast stand a chance of owning. If CW wants to make them fine. But I'd give my money to the guy who is going to have the product when I'm ready to buy it.

I agree with you Shawn507. I think HM has some good stuff coming our way. Take a look at the top of this thread and look at the post #8 by Andrew where he has a link to HM and the schedule on 3 Jan 07. HM has produced all those planes up to the Forthcoming F-4. I hope the list after the F-4 is what we can expect this year with some surprises along the way. BTW the note on Feb 1 07 talks about the A-7 being delayed until 2008.

I plan on picking up only a few F-4s, especially the GA British Spooks. If Zed's tip off is any indication, it sounds like there will be three companies putting out Phantoms. 2008 may turn into the "Year of the Phantom Overload"...
