A nice 1/72nd C-141 and KC-46 tanker would be great from them as well!

The price is more than reasonable. The RMX BUFF kits, when available on eBay, can sell for almost twice as much. Hopefully, there will be B-G versions in the pipeline.

I wouldn't have the faintest idea of where I could display such a large aircraft model. After all, space is the final frontier for modelers, and I'm starting to need to expand my display space. So Of course I'm planning on changing scales from 1/48 to 1/32 for props. makes perfect sense to me.

Always a large scale modeler and while the Sluff isn't large scale, it's sure is going to be big! Very intriguing and looking forward to more information on the kit. I'm hoping for $99.99 list it will be nicely detailed and reflect the state of the art. Wouldn't it be grand for a series of Cold War Bombers: B-47, B-36, The RAF V Bombers and of course those with the Red Star.
