Israeli F-16s are in -- anyone have one?

Looking for opinions on these sweet-looking birds, I'm a sucker for F-16s and I'm curious to know what you think of Witty's effort -- I just have the Tiger Meet Dragon F-16 in 1:72 right now. I have one Witty jet -- the Ukraine Flanker, and I think it's terrific.

Re: Israeli F-16s are in -- anyone have one?

I like the F-16 Falcon i have a Cripes A Mighty one made by Witty.
I'm thinking of getting the Scorpion Israel Defense F-16.
Did they update anything since the Cripes A Mighty i have no idea ?
I like them better than Dragons.

Talking Re: Israeli F-16s are in -- anyone have one?

I looked them over yesterday (in the box) and they look good! Did not get one yet though, spent my quota for the week. I want a 72nd scale Iraqi nuclear plant to go w/ my Israeli 16's!

I like the two seat Witty 16's better than the Dragon version. Not a huge diff, but some little things like: The poor attachment of the port/strbd ID lights on the intake below the cockpit are a disappointment and draw the eye on the Dragon 2-seat version. And addition of prop rods for the canopies on Witty is a nice little touch. Paintwork seems about the same quality though the weapon attachment on the Witty's are MUCH more solid and simple. I like simple.

Just replace it with Iranian nuclear plant so I can sleep tighter tonight.

Re: Israeli F-16s are in -- anyone have one?

I'm a sucker for the Israeli camo scheme! I'm inclined to go after the aircraft with the scorpion logo.

It would be my introduction to Witty jets. Pretty steep price though. I had hoped that Dragon would do an Israeli scheme. I prefer wheels up.

Re: Israeli F-16s are in -- anyone have one?

Well I went ahead and ordered one, so I guess I'll answer my own question definitively in about a week I got the one with the payload, wish the Scorpian version wasn't "clean" or I'd have gone for that one.
