Please fix the front wind screen on your F-14s - VF-103 CAG “Santa Cat”

For the love of God please Witty fix your F-14 cockpit wind screen.

I really want to buy your upcoming VF-103 CAG (Modex 103) “Santa Cat” Christmas 2000. There is no way I am going buy any of your Tomcats until you fix your version.
You did it with your faulty Super Hornet so I know you can do it, don’t let us down.

Superhornet: add a piece (simple plastic mould)
Tomcat: change the canopy (redo the canopy mould)

I am not sure, but I guess fixing the tomcat is more expensive than fixing the superbug...Although that IS the reason that has kept me from buying ANY witty tomcats so far...so a fix would be welcome here.

Okay, this is where "ignorance is bliss" may come in, but I've been thinking of picking up a Witty Tom -- what's the issue with the canopy?

Most collectors like the looks of the Windscreen that the real jet fighter have.
I do too....But if it's not on the jet and i like it i'm still buying it with or without the Windscreen.

The pictures are out on the manufacturer's website. Think the windshield frame was fixed but I noticed the VF-103 F-14 comes with a dual chinpod of a F-14D and the squadron used F-14B. But still like the combination of armaments in this one.

Yep the front windscreen has been fixed on the new Witty F-14's.
It's kind of hard to tell in the pre pro shots because they are dark & the paint on the windscreen is black, but it's correct.
Over all Witty makes a really nice F-14.
