    They'll all be released eventually, Oxotnik. As I'm fond of saying, it's all just a matter of time. Where's that kettlecorn?

          So, let the record show that Alpha has said that Motion will soon release both a Do-335 and MiG-17. :Cool: :Cool::Cool:

              Ok Boots...............saw your comment (post #76) over on the official F-4 thread about getting one after the 1/7.5 scale OV-10 Bronco is modeled. Right on brother :Cool:
              Yepper, you know that's what I'm :Drooling:for too. ;) Then the F-4 after all the madman rush has settled down.
              Besides, my wallet is under duress while in process on a 1/7.5 scale 83" ESM F7F Tigercat and a 1/9 scale 92" ASM A-26 Invader.
              Am also saving for a RC Aerodyne(Roban) 1/8.5 scale 81" A-10 to replace the FW one lost @ eWEEK last Sept.
              Just really like the 1/8 scale range.
              I NEED THAT :ov10 ALPHA :)in a 63" (1600mm) 1/7.5 scale
              I will take a DO-335 as an alternative in a 67" (1700mm) 1/8 scale

                          LOL I'll do that to my Scale Tech one if Alpha will give me(us) a 1600mm Super Scale Bronco ;)

                          Here's how the full size handled short landings starts at 30sec portion of video

                          Here's why a Bronco is the best "rough field" aircraft bar none as shown on the full size landing gear tests.

                            Sooo......I've got two F4 's on order now and thinking of a third..........Like right Grossman!!LOLLOLLOL
                            Don't get me wrong, a great airplane and can't wait to see guys getting them up and flying, it's just a bit too much for me at this point, both price and ability-wise.
                            And I'm really holding out for the next WWII bird. Will they go for a bigger Bearcat ( happened with the Spitfire), It's also interesting that FlightLine hasn't modeled a Japanese airplane as of yet as well. Something like a P-36 Mohawk could be interesting as well.
                            And of course, I'd go for the OV-10 as well!!!

                              Get 4, do them in Blue Angels. Wire them into formation and fly as one big bird.

                                You are not the only one that finds the F-4 boring, a DO-335 would be a much more interesting bird to have, heck a F-4D would be more interesting or F-106 and A-5 Vigilante!

                                      Haha, lets have the Dart with wheels come first ;). Although on a more serious note, I would love to see a Martin P6M Seamaster produced someday, which the Sea Dart was supposed to escort. Just a beautiful airplane all around. For a prop plane, a big Martin Mars would be spectacular as well. There’s just something inherently cool and beautiful about big flying boats.
