I also tend to go for customs, assuming it is attractive or historically significant, much more than regular releases. I bought all the Flying Mule exclusives until they became too numerous.

While not on your list, there seems to have been a fair amount of support in the past for doing the HM P-39 in the markings of Bud Anderson's bird. I think it could be done very nicely with just the slightest amount of modification. Even better would be to strike a deal with Colonel Anderson to autograph some or all of the models. We've all been waiting for an Old Crow P-51B, which would be fantastic if based on the Gemini mold.

All that would be required to create this model would be a change to the cowl to show the single MG positioned there while filling in the wing gun ports on the current model. No doubt there are other minor differences, but I could live with the gun reconfigurations. Of course, there would be no rockets on the Midway TBF.

That would make for an interesting and good looking model. It would be neat to have an Avenger with the early war insignia.

I'm all for the A-10 flown by Killer Chick , a OLD CROW P-39, I really want a 3 tone Hellcat with the large red outlined insignia (not the small one as one Dragon's).

Even though I have a converted one, I'd still be up for this one...ESPECIALLY if it was signed by Col. Anderson himself!
