Default Snap-Fit Corporate Jets?

I collect the Flight Miniatures snap-fit airliners, and I was wondering if any company makes something similar, only Coporate Jet models.
The only models I've been able to ifnd are the expensive desk models, I'm looking for something in the $20-$40 range.
I found a snap-fit model of the Eclipse 500 on the Eclipse Online store that is $25, just wondering if there are more out there.

Thanks

...just to add,i should always ask Ben(my husband ).
He said Wooster was taken over around 2000/01 by PPL Holland.
Both companies are now one,trading as PPL Wooster.

Excellent just noticed this is my 100th post!

I know flight miniatures makes airliners, but I'm interested in Corporate Jet models, like Dessault Falcons and Cessna Citations. Do any of these companies make these?

Snap-fit biz-jets are rare.

They only appear when the aircraft manufacturer`s need to promote they real thing.

I only have 3 biz-jets ,1 HS-125 ,2X BAC 1-11(used by a local company to show a customer,new paint scemes on htis private 1-11).
I do not know who made them.

If you are successful in your search, please pass it on. I am a captain of a Citation V and have been looking for inexpensive biz models for awhile now. Unfortunately there just isn't a demand. The small demand is taken up by the more expensive $200/per resin examples that folks buy for their flight department desks. And these folks have no problem affording 1 or 2 examples.

Cheers
