I'll have to wait to see this in person before I start judging but from the pix, it looks like Armour has a serious competitor in 1:48.
I've been waiting a long time for someone to make a birdcage P-51 and these guys even got the gear doors right.
Unless the price is rude for this, I will be buying one.

Hi all, --- I understand Eagles International is a new line of 1/48 diecast militay aircraft being produced by the operator of OnMark International, a diecast retailer located in Oklahoma. In addition to the P-51 B/C shown, another P-51 B/C with the "Malcolm hood" in aluminum finish is planned as a follow-up. You can view an image of it in OnMark's ad in the current issue of Flight Journal magazine. If the release of these models goes well I'm sure more B/C Mustangs will follow. Consideration of a follow on "Razorback" Thunderbolt has been mentioned. As I know Richard is a true military afficionado, I'm sure the attention to detail, accuracy, and production quality will stand out in these models. I, for one, look forward to many deliveries from Tulsa. -----Mark Kolodzie
