Default Can Anyone Identify This Model for Me?

I was just bumping around on ebay and came across this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...3603%26fvi%3D1

Does anyone know who makes this model and where I can order or get one besides this auction? It's a 1/172 scale which is a rare scale.

This model is made in Taiwan. by Phoenix model.
We used to carry this models, big scales with funny landing gear. I am not sure about 1:72 scale from this auction. should be 1:130 scale.

I didn't know that Phoenix made 1/130 scales. Correct me if I'm wrong, to my knowlege Long Prosper is the one that made 1/130 scales and Phoenix made 1/300 & 1/400 scales.

(the stand is smaller on Long Prosper) This Phoenix model of Taiwan is manily in plastic or solid plastic models, just like Rise soon the producer of skymark. Yes, these two company using the same names. but Phoenix model of Taiwan is in longer Business history that the once in HKG.
This 1:130 model of Phenix model is available @ CKS airpiort Terminal 1 about $49.99 each. and on the stand will indictaed; Phoenix model, made in Taiwan. phone:886-02....
