            I tried to order direct from FMS, they took my order and my money, then refunded my money and told me I had to order from one of there distributors... I hope MRC carries it. May end up at FORCE/HORIZON.

                I am hoping they offer the all white version. I want to hurry up and get one to do the paint job, I already have the decals for it.

                  I would like to see just about all of the planes offered in an unpainted version.
                  It would save a lot of work stripping paint to do the color scheme desired.

                  And it would be easy. Just DON'T apply the paint.

                  current planes from 1/2 oz to 22 lbs

                    Doubt Motion will carry it but if you go direct to the Checkout & pay they will send out .. Apparently that's what guys in the US have been doing ...

                      For certain airplanes that would be popular it would make sense but for other less popular ones not so much.
                      One perfect example of a model that would sell very well in a base gray would be of a F-4 Phantom when ever it gets released because it had so many liveries.

                        AMEN to that.. I think they would boost there profits to not paint them. I personally want to do my own livery and decals. One exception was the Alaskan F-16 that I purchased recently from Mrc,very happy with it.

                            Not even basic gray... That means more coats of white for the people painting it white.

                            Just bare foam.

                                Bare EPO is a pain to prep for paint and may not be a good option for the average consumer. The manufacturers have access to to processes we don't such that I would prefer them to come with a base coat of gray or white to work from. Just my personal preference.
