Rather odd that they all went Oh Lightning II. By my count that is the 3rd lightning.
Lockheed P83 then the EE Lightning then this. Probably due to the second not being a Lockheed

Far to many in one post to comment on but that Squid game figure is a waste of both plastic and tool-steel.

A new Belfast! pity its not a little bit larger in scale.

A closer look at the Belfast boxart shows it to be post-war ( with lattice masts ) and perhaps a Leander/Torquay frigate in the background. A pity, I'd rather it be 1943, Battle of North Cape, or the Normandy landings........
ICM must think it worth their while, since this is number 3 man-in-an-orange-boilersuit!!

By that reasoning, the Arado Ar 234 Blitz would also count against the number :)

The F35 is the Lightning II because it’s the second American fighter plane to have that name.

Border also get a slating about their boxart - not only about the Bf-109 proximity, but also this...........

What is the pilot wearing on his head? What is his mate wearing? - who is his mate? My own view is that the Lancaster was usually used as a night bomber - why is this in broad daylight? - looks like it was done by an artist who has referenced B-17 pilots & missions

That black underside is going to make them stand out a bit in daylight isn’t it……

The pilots are clearly USAAF (at least to my eye)... while the use of Lancs in daylight, although not very common, is not totally wrong, especially if referred to the last 12 months of war in Europe.

The artist who made this is the same one that did the Chinese tanks near to the Golden Gate Bridge. That too caused an uproar with quite a few of our brethren across the pond lol

Lifes a bit short isn't it not even worth showing my face of concern most kits come with the disclaimer that whats on the box ain't necessarily that what your find inside.

This is typical of models being aimed at computer games players.
There are numerous versions of ''Red Dawn'' scenario games.

WW3 scenario Computer Games

The same people who would get upset if they ever filmed ''Red Storm Rising" or most of Tom Clancy's original books properly.
