Cool Hand Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 That looks great. Is it possible to make 4 of any single type of missile, for example an Aim-9G/H? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cool Hand Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Yes! Great! I plan on doing the 4x Winders and 4x Sparrows on an early Tomcat when I get this kit. Just have to decide on which scheme now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconxlvi Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Woohoo! Somehow seeing the box makes it seem all the more "real". Can't wait to buy and build it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Craig Baldwin Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Completely agree Gene! I forgot about that particular boxing. Sweet looking art indeed. :cheers:/> I wonder how many kits over the years were sold merely on the box art? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I.Martin Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Perhaps it has been explained before, but if the wings are movable, how about the wing glove sealing bags, are they movable too? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Janissary Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 IIRC there are both types of bags. You can interchange without gluing them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jay Chladek Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 I'll happily take one for review, thank you very much. ;) Seriously though, this kit is going to make a lot of modelers happy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Don Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 ...Seriously though, this kit is going to make a lot of modelers happy. Agreed! Glad I preordered as I see this kit selling really quickly once its released. Cheers! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrewvft Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Looks like markings for an Iranian F-14 are included. I'm excited. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

habu2 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Couldn't resist any longer - pulled the pre-order trigger :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JimC Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) Boy, I don't know what wrong there. I guess that the 'special $2.00' shipping promo is way over. I tried to enter my info to LM yesterday for 2 pre-ordered Tamiya F-14s, and was going to be charged $202. $66.00 alone for shipping. Forget that! So, I'll just wait for a 'sale' and get it then. I guess, like the old saying, 'He who hesitates is lost'. Jim Edited August 13, 2016 by JimC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess, like the old saying, 'He who hesitates is lost'. Jim It is still going on, I just checked. Make sure you choose the "surface mail" option from the drop down menu for "Shipping Method". The total will go down to $2 from $66. The only drawback is the wait for surface shipping. Don't forget to input "DOUBLE" in the coupon code area to get an extra 10% off!

Jim Intriguing, if you order them one at a time you get $18 shipping charge to the US but if you order two it's well over $60...if you order 3, shipping only increase with $10. Best to order one at a tine unless you order more than two.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Plastictiger Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Spoke to the Tamiya Rep at the IPMS Nationals. The F-14 comes to America first he said so I'm not sure the Lucky or HLJ preorders are the best option. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
