Here is a pic of the Tony on HLJ's website.. And BTW, these are already SOLD OUT...

For me, I don't typically like the homeland defense white markings on my Japanese models but this model looks nice. I thought this release was going to have dark green squiggly camo.

The green squiggly camo was just speculation.. This is the first "official" pic I have seen of this bird and I am glad I pre-ordered..

Good looking paint scheme on this one. Wonder if more might turn up.

And the wait continues for my first 1/48 scale Japanese diecast. As I've refused Franklin Mint's iffy Zero offerings, and no one else will produce these planes, I'll just have to wait and save my $$$ for a cool Marushin livery (of which this Tony is/was). Farg.

You will not be dissapointed when you finally pick one up. I have 2.5 of their models (Val, Oscar and Baka,,, the .5 model). and think they are great looking models.
