This one is about to be released, and while not as nice as the HPH one, at under $200 it's quite a bit more affordable than HPH's $10,000 price tag for theirs.

What would the dimensions on a 1/6th scale f-14 be? wings swept and un-swept

Not that strange to see 90's era Tomcats without Phoenix missiles. They were being phased out as the Tomcat was being assigned Bombcat roles since the Dept of Defense no longer saw the Cat's role as primarily air defense. Not my favorite choice of scheme for VF-103. This scheme is exactly like VF-84's last cruise scheme in 1994-95 era. All that changed is the squadron number on the bottom fins. VF-103 really started looking awesome by 1998 when they added the white cap on the tail and colored in the vagabond stripe black with white outline and painted the auxillary tanks grey with black/white vagabond stripe. They should have done that scheme.

Any more pics of the XB-70? What scale is that?

Black Lion VF-213 · Post by **Black Lion VF-213** » Wed Dec 03, 2008 7:08 pm

That XB-70 appears to be anywhere between 48 to 32 scale.

At that price, it better have a operable mini jet engine.

Give Ahmadinejad a call over in Iran, he will sell you a real Tomcat for less than that. With no spare parts of course....

That HPH model looks fantastic.

And so it should for $10,000.

Very small market for these fantastic customs.Must be nice to be able to afford one of these.

Great to see anyway.

I can get you a 1/18 F-14 for a whopping $18,000 less---but it has spots on it.

Berkut · Post by **Berkut** » Wed Sep 08, 2010 5:08 pm

That is pure freaking awesome!

In the Chech Republic is also a factory who makes all kind of detailted 1/18 planes for 10-15 grands.

Since i discovered 1/18 planes i was aware of HPH (throught the American dealer ) I was pretty shocked by the prices at first but i am lucky to have seen some models in "Flesh" in a specialszed shop in TOKYO and i can say that it's justified thoses models are incredible !!!!!!

i saw on ebay (in switzerland) a guy who was selling a blue angels F-18 from HPH at 4500 euros = 5900 US $ - at the time i hesitated a few minutes but it's a huge sum (I actually bought a a small used SUV to go skiing for this amount

and it kept me thinking ... )

:blueangel:

but i really wish i won the lottery ! ( i will display side by side my 2 collections : 21st CT & BBI and the same models in HPH .... the total cost could be more than 350 000 US $ !!!!!

)
