F-8s are here! 1/144 F-14s are flying off the shelves too!



The long awaited Century Wings F-8 Crusaders of NP100 and NP101 have arrived and all of the pre-orders have now been shipped. They are beautiful models. Century Wings maintains the quality of their earlier releases. There have been VERY few complaints about them on the forums too (expect maybe about the UPS guy taking too long to deliver them!).
One surprising model line is the 1/144 F-14 model line. The first 3 in the series have now been released. 1/144 scale is a really awesome scale and we're hoping that it becomes a new standard in diecast. Its large enough to see detail but small enough that a model maker could build a cargo or bomber model in the common scale as well. Think refuelers and fighters in one diorama. Speaking of the Century Wings new F-14s though. The Black Aces is FLYING off the shelves. Only 1,000 of these babies have been made worldwide. This model is a must have for any serious Century Wings collector.
Finally, the Century Wings Jolly Rogers F-14 AJ201 is due into our store next week. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own one. This model is an exclusive US release. Only 1,000 models have been produced. The distributor is sold out. Remember a previous release? Our Jolly Rogers AJ210 charity auction on EBAY went for over $275! This model is AS limited and the demand has been huge.

In short, Century Wings is cementing themselves as being highly collectable models with amazing details....Worth every penny. But then again, save a little by ordering from AimHigherJets.com !

UPDATE:  The Century Wings AJ201 is SOLD OUT!  Sorry.  We sold tons of these models!  Unfortunately the only way to buy one now is to pay WAY TOO MUCH for them on E-Bay.  Don't miss out on the next Century Wings release.  We recommend pre-ordering all Century Wing models that you are interested in owning!
