23 TFW-75th F.S. 'Sharks',
Town of Hope Mills

Do any of you guys own an Armour Collection Warthog? I just purchased a 1/48 "Sharks" A-10 (gray paint with sharks mouth) and I was wondering if the landing gear is retractable, detachable, etc. Does it come with a stand?

I can't wait for it to arrive.

No stand with mine (SP 81-954) and the u/c is fixed too.
You won't be disappointed, it is a very nice model.
I got mine a couple of months back, and then came face to face with the real '954' displaying at RIAT 03 at Fairford last weekend.

I agree...I have two Armour A-10s...Pope & England AFB...I plan on getting the "Peanut" & Jaws ones also. Oh yeah, the one from Spang too...and I'm sure the'll be one eventually from Iraqi Freedom....just wish I could get a 70th FS and/or 25th FS one...but that'll never happen...

Yeah they may be worth the money there Goose but I think they got the markings all wrong. Werent they supposed to say 80-166 on the BUNO ? And that door art ! Definetly in need of a Live Free or Die Sticker ! IMHO....................Dont ya think?

By this time tomorrow I shall have gained either a pearage or Westminster Abbey........Nelson

AIM-7? I thought the Hawg could only carry the AIM-9 as A2A armament.

I think it was a typo, it is only Aim-9s (as far as I know anyways)

Yeah. A replica of Killer Chick's Hog W/damage would be nice. Perhaps a hideous action figure of Lt. Campbell to go with it? <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

In response to KCWarthog's question, I just bought mine at www.onmarkint.com. They've got a great selection of Armour products, and this particular "Sharks" model is very hard to locate at this time. In fact, I've tried about 10 different retailers for the last couple months, and it finally came in. I would try them first.
