OMG!! that wing section is incredible. Looks more like what you would expect in a 1/32 scale kit. I'm drooling waiting for this release, and the main reason why I haven't gotten the Tamiya kit as yet.

If you are in the market for a wings extended version of the F-14 then this looks like the one to buy.
Of more interest to me though personally, what's happening with their promised 1/48 MIG 25?

Nice,but an open wing Tomcat takes a lot of shelf space that I dont have.
