Marketing 101-1

Set an expectation that you can exceed, then exceed it.

 

Marketing 101-2.  The Quality Clause

The Quality Clause is:. Their is NOT one but 2 parts to quality.  Part 1.  What's in the box.  Part 2, and of equal weight to Part 1.  Did you get what's in the box done when you said you'd get what's in the box done?  Duh, the first time you said you would get it done.

Marketing 101-3 The Sanity Clause

If you don't get what you want by Christmas, you have a mental breakdown. 

 

I thought that was the Santa Clause.....

Ha! That was literally the first thing that came to my mind, then I scrolled further down and saw your response.

There is no Santa Claus.

 

Yet, 3+ years and 96 97 pages later, many still believe he exists....

haha, but, that is the Tamiya kit

 

(you do get a "made you look" award, though)

 

You didn't think I was talking about the AMK kit did you!😏

All kidding aside, I hope they do release the kit because I love Tomcats.

yaayyyy! it exists.

I see a couple things that have piqued my curiosity.

1 it looks like we will have to select the wing sweep position before assembly. the big spar pieces look like they are not moveable.

2 the intake trunking/ engine cowl is the full length, but there is also the cowling on the lower fuselage. I am assuming that one piece is mounted over the other.

3 the gun gas vent is molded to the forward fuselage, so no early tomcat kit unless they retool the piece.

 

I am glad to see that they have FINALLY gotten the plastic done. now all that is needed is a safety review ??

I do not see that.  They have a circular joint which I'll bet will make the wings movable.

have a look again at the first picture Matt. to me it looks like one set is at full sweep and the other is at max sweep for parking.
