Since you have to sign up at that crummy site to look at their photos, I didn't get a look at them. Anyone steal them and host them elsewhere? I'd kind of dig seeing them a little better.

Now Hasbro, make us some Head Sculpt & Endor Uniform variations! The new Rebel Fleet Trooper gets the JJ Seal of Approval Though!

My fancy wishlist : RAFALE, mirage, F100 & F8 crusader...
I definitely want to see the F-8. I know there's a lot of Phantom love out there but the MIG MASTER/Last Gunfighter shouldn't be overlooked.
Shin's wishlist for 1/18 and 1/32 with retractable landing gear and more:

F-14 Tomcat, F-8 Crusader, A-4 Skyhawk, F-105 Thunderchief, A-6 Intruder, F-15C, F-15E Strike Eagle

I hope JSI listens to modelers and collectors and doesn't go off in one direction leaving the rest behind. Modern is great but WWII sells.
I don't think WWII is going to go anywhere. WWII has always been a great seller. Profits from WWII 1/18 models can be used to r/d new Modern 1/18 stuff and WWII is what 1/18 basically started with.

Even if the manufacturers don't make WWII items for a while I think they will return to it inevitably. There are still several WWII era items that fans want.

F-14 Tomcat, F-8 Crusader, A-4 Skyhawk, F-105 Thunderchief, A-6 Intruder, F-15C, F-15E Strike Eagle

No room or money for big planes, but I am a sucker for 1:18 figures and accessories. I'll be getting these.

LOVE the F-8! I think it would be a neat one to add to the collection.

I have always liked the F-8. That would be one sweet model. :D
Fred, really looking forward to the JSI 1/18th scale Grumman F-14 Tomcat.
